No Enthusiasm Gap - Yet

Edited on Sun Oct-17-10 08:41 PM by kpete

Historical comparison shows Democrat/Republican breakdown in early vote standard for midterm election; no enthusiasm gap yet

By Jon Ralston · October 17, 2010 · 11:30 AM

Elsewhere on this blog, I have shown you that the Democrats are leading the GOP in early voting, but not by as much as registration totals in Clark. Below is an analysis of what happened last midterm, in addition to the Washoe County numbers from Saturday, indicating no enthusiasm gap yet.

Clark = 17,066 early votes

8062 Democrats (47% - 2.4% percent of total Dems)

6488 Republicans (38% - 2.7% percent of total GOP)

So Democrats underperforming Republicans by three-tenths of a percent.

Washoe = 4260 early votes

1733 Democrats (41% - 2% of Dems)

1964 Republicans (46% - 2.3% of GOP)

So in Washoe, same underperformance by Democrats.

So pretty much even after first day in terms of percentage of each universe.
