DNC Memo: "The Republican 'Surge'/'Wave' Has Not Materialized"

WASHINGTON -- In a memo being sent to "interested parties" on Wednesday, the Democratic National Committee argues, again, that the early voting data so far in the 2010 elections debunks the notion that they face an enthusiasm gap.



"We are winning. In key states, such as NV, IA, CA, WI, WA, IL and WV, Democrats are outpacing Republicans in early vote. In other states, such as CO, Democrats tend to cast votes later than Republicans (as they did in 2008), and we are confident that margin will close," the memo reads.



The Republican ‘surge’/’wave’ has not materialized in early vote, and it’s not going to. When we look at early vote results by distinct vote history levels (mid-term voters / presidential-year only voters), Democratic early voting is comparable, and often higher, than Republican voting.


In key congressional districts, Democrats are out-performing in early vote. In many key districts, Democrats are outpacing Republicans both in raw ballots cast and participation rates.
