Election Day is still a month away, but more than 700,000 Americans have already voted across at least 30 states. There are signs emerging of the advantage Democrats have in motivating their voters – a trend that’s played out in polling all summer long.

In several states with key Senate or governor races this fall, Democrats make up a larger share of voters requesting ballots so far than they did at this point in 2024.

In Iowa, Democrats have made 67% of ballot requests, up from 54% at this point in 2024. In Pennsylvania, it’s 66%, up from 62%, and in Maine it’s 57%, up from 53%. And according to data from the North Carolina State Board of Elections, 42% of ballot requests are from Democrats, up from 36% at this point two years ago.

          Let me ask, what has the left actually accomplished in this country in the last 30 years, besides cancelling a bunch of comedians?
          Unlike you, I actually want the shit I want to actually happen in my lifetime.
          If you think these things are going to happen by NOT VOTING, then you are dumb. Blocking you now.
