Pie charts suck! Note how a bar chart makes this difference a lot more obvious
If 15% of unaffiliated voters switch from previous years' Democrat voting to Republican, say goodbye to Thurston Howell lll.
Anything you can do to help set up the narrative that elections that the fascists lose are stolen from them.
…or if the Unaffiliated break the other way, we’ll be witnessing a Kansas tsunami (more likely scenario) and you can play the role of Homer Simpson shaking your fists at the clouds in the deep blue sky.
If I were you, Pfruit, I’d err on the side of caution with your boat ready and a five-gallon can of $5 diesel close by.
I don't recall the last time that an elected official of the Republican variety actively endorsed a Libertarian alternative as "the conservative" in the race. How many unaffiliated voters will it take to offset the defection to the Libertarian candidate?
And in the last couple of elections, there were national Republican Senate funders — how many of those new voters aren't going to be delighted to show up because those funders were unwilling to invest in O'Dea?
And finally … do you really think the newest voters (since Unaffiliated is the default choice for all new voters from DMV and some other registration processes) will decide to make their first vote in favor of whatever O'Dea is trying to push, or even generically deciding they want to jump on the confused wagon with Republican nominees?
Keep reachin' for that rainbow, PP. Anything that helps the delusions seem real.
sure would be a shame if there were long lines on election day in red districts…
The sarcasm is strong with this one…
Colorado doesn't believe in long lines … nor election day. [Ballots to uniformed & overseas voters went out Sept 24, clerks could begin handing out ballots (and accepting them back) on Oct 10, ballots were mailed to all registered voters on the 17th, and the first Voter Service & Polling Centers opened the 17th. Ballots have to be in Nov. 8 by 7 pm … unless you are Uniformed or Overseas, as they can get theirs in by November 16.]
over 90% of all ballots in 2018 and 2020 were returned by mail or drop box. Another sizeable portion of the ballots will have been done in person but before the "election day."
Actually, the latest voter registration break down available on the Sec of State’s website is 45.6% U 27.8% D 24.7% R. So the difference between D & R returns very closely matches the difference in registration. It is the Us that are far behind. By registration they are about 18% points ahead of the Dems but in ballot returns they are 3.5 points ahead.
These are all based on active voters (mail ballots don’t go to inactive ones).
Can we just be done with the tired narrative of unaffiliated swing voters? Pew has well established that the majority of Us left their parties to go to the extremes rather than remain in the middle.
If, as Dano suggests, Us are behind in voting as a percentage of the electorate, this is probably a good thing as it means fewer votes from extremes on either side and that the Dems lead is significant.
"tired narrative….."
Your Pew link is almost three years old. The study was done before the pandemic hit and long before the 2020 presidential election. Perhaps something newer could help…….
“Since Jerry DiTullio was elected, he has worked tirelessly to bring transparency and accessibility to the County Treasurer’s office. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he worked with State officials to bring relief to Jefferson County taxpayers by bringing forward a program that allowed maximum flexibility with property tax payments. Because of Treasurer DiTullio’s commitment to transparency, accessibility, and stewardship of the citizens’ tax dollars, I am honored to endorse him in the 2022 election.”
