Is Obamas "vote early"strategy a failure?

Recommended Posts

Lot's of comments from team Obama about how the early vote is so strongly going their way. I know that Gallup is out of favor lately but I'd like to see what the talking heads say here.

"Whether the candidates' focus on early voting will ultimately pay off isn't clear. At present, early voting appears to be a convenience that older voters are using disproportionately; they may welcome the opportunity to vote by mail rather than in person on Election Day. It is also relatively common in the West and among postgraduates, groups that may have better access to information about how to navigate the early voting process. Some states not only encourage early voting, but mandate it, thus accounting for regional differences. However, despite the hype, it doesn't appear that early voting will have a major impact on the U.S. popular vote, or be much more prevalent than it was four years ago."

Why pose it as a question?



Huh? Because it was a question. I don't know that it was a failure, I don't know that it is a success. Hence a question.

I referenced the Gallup report to show where my question was coming from.

You are missing an important piece of information that makes your comment irrelevant and stupid:P
