Republicans “do have an advantage,” Jim Messina has acknowledged.
The early voting numbers in the US presidential election look “scary” for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, a former manager of US president Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign has said.
Jim Messina made the warning on Sunday, during an interview with MSNBC host and former White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki.
“Early vote numbers are a little scary,” he admitted.
According to Messina, supporters of Republican candidate Donald Trump have been much more active compared to the previous election.
“Republicans did not do what they did last time. Last time, Trump said: ‘Do not early vote,’ and so they did not. Republicans do have an advantage in early vote numbers. When the early vote comes in, it is going to look a little bit different than 2020,” he said.
The early voting figures have “led lots of your friends and my friends to call me, panicking,” Messina told Psaki.
However, he stressed that Harris’ campaign also has grounds to be “very, very happy.” Two voting blocks, believed to be crucial for the Democratic candidate, are “coming big,” the former campaign manager explained.
Women make up more than a half of the early voters and “in the past ten days, young voters in these battleground states are coming out in what looks to be… historic numbers,” Messina explained.
According to NBC’s figures, 76.2 million mail-in and early in-person votes have already been cast across the US.
Among those who voted early, 41% are Democrats and 39% are Republicans, with the party affiliation of the remaining 20% unknown.
However, more Republicans cast their ballots in four out of the seven battleground states, with the margin being the largest in Arizona: 42% to 33%.
NBC’s figures suggest that among the early voters, 53% were females and 20% those aged between 18 and 39 years. Election day in the US is on Tuesday of this week.
“two voting blocks” oh you mean the fake voting papers and illegal immigrants?
Dems doing what they do. Stealing.
Correct. Kamala struggles to get 100 people into a room while Trump is selling out arenas and baseball stadiums daily. This “neck and neck” business we keep hearing (even down here in NZ) is complete 🐎 💩
It’s just narrative-seeding for the inevitable anonymous 4am ballot dumps, broken water pipes, machine “glitches” and various other shenanigans we’ll start seeing tomorrow night.
They cheated in 2020 and got away with it. They will obviously do it again, especially since everything else (up to and including trying to KILL Trump) has failed.
Agree. 💯 👍
Yeah the only thing involving necks should be a noose for the dems 🤣🤣🤣
Who is actually buying this bullshit? It’s clear Kamala is obviously the result of too much inbreeding 🤣🤣🤣 she’s actually worse than baby biting daughter showering girl sniffing pedo Joe 🤣🤣🤣
Many women Democrats don’t like Harris (Didn’t like Hillary either). They don’t switch to Trump, they simply don’t vote.
More gas lighting from the Democrats.
Nuther words ‘we been cheating to get those numbers up’.
It is not the choice of the voters. It is the choice of the vote counters.
Option 1. Trump President – No war overseas war. Illegal immigrants deported. Employment.
Option 2. Harris President – Civil War, death to the vote counters, a new nation is born.
It’s a win/win.
But then, at the last minute, voters will suddenly all decide to vote Democrat, even those that already voted Trump, not to mention their deceased relatives………the magic pixies at the bottom of the garden will all celebrate…………
The dems have not fielded a weaker candidate ever since i can remember. A puppet who can barely string a sentence together. Unwinnable.
The republicans know this too. They’ll keep a much closer eye on polling stations now than 4 years ago. If results look iffy it will be more than just Trump questioning them this time.
