I'm picturing Jerz rubbing his hands together, gleefully preparing to drop a perfectly rational and broadly acceptable alternative to current early voting practice on us all

it's what hall of famers do

I'm guessing JH mostly meant that results from early voting mostly stupid. You don't get a ton of context and it's not representative of the population necessarily.

Comparing early voting surges in NV for example could be completely explainable in a way that doesn't mean Dems are in good to great shape.

I certainly don't read a ton into early voting. These are the people who have decided, likely long ago. It's the undecided folks especially this year that will drive much of the outcome.

Early voting can be predictive and has been for the last few elections

Gore in Colorado tomorrow for HRC

Thrilling news for republicans

NC only state where Afr-Am decline in total 2012 number. May be due more to illegal purging, polling place locations, etc. than enthusiasm

I wonder the the gap between the polls and early voting numbers in NV aren't explained by the GOTV efforts, where the Dems are going to have huge advantages.

That's exciting!!!

Two new polls have Ohio as a one point race, so things may not be impossible there for Hillary, especially after a Cleveland rally today with Lebron James.

Go Ohio! Do the right thing!

Hopefully, they'll still come out on election day.

From what I can tell, more Dems and women than Republicans and men have voted. Yay.

One of the things I learned this year: something has gone haywire with the conservative information stream. https://t.co/IhaqbUrVpU

Youseff is right. Alex Jones is a mainstream conservative thought leader

New letter from Comey says nevermind about all that.

wow, very surprising turn of events

Sucks if we lose the senate because of that

There's some weiiiiird ad with a fake Clinton using a hammer and a chainsaw to go at a laptop while she cackles

Just sucks how this was affected with early voting however the last week..
