Sorry, the days are long and my mind is full and I don’t have anything interesting to say. I will at some point. For now, this is what we get. Final EV totals from 2018 are here and from 2014 are here. The Day Three totals for 2022 are here.
Year Mail Early Total
===============================
2014 46,293 61,150 107,443
2018 55,506 190,455 245,961
2022 28,536 176,964 205,500
There were 56K in person voters yesterday, and a bit over 4K returned mail ballots. At this point, 2022 is running about twice as high as 2014, and that gap will grow, while at about 80% of 2018 overall but more than 90% of 2018 in person. The 2018 dailies stay pretty flat though the last day, with an odd dip on the second Wednesday. I think 2022 will catch up, at least for the in person totals. Have you voted yet?
My arm was getting tired of pushing the D button, which made me wonder if I would have to vote by mail when I hit 100.
