It's 4 days before the election and if you are anything like me, you're just a bit nervous about Tuesday. When I get antsy, I want data and so i started scanning Twitter for it. I thought I would share with you, our dear readers, what I found. My goal is to introduce you to some out of the box data collectors and give you some factual perspectives. Let's get started.

As I mentioned this morning, everyone on EV X has different strengths and specialities. We're all our own individuals, but we're also a collaborative community.
I work best where there is a high volume of data. For PA, I mapped…

Poured over every municipality in every major city, Racine, MKE, Dane, Brown, etc. The numbers are undoubtedly redder than 2022 even in deep blue counties.

First crack at WI. Using 2024 EV by county, and applying a crude model of 2020 vote shares by county
* Harris is up 3.3% in the EV
* 40% of 2020 vote is in
* Mail is way down, IPEV is way up
Now let's look at turnout in key counties

* 12 largest counties make up 68% of pop
* 4 Biden county turnout (T/O)? 44%, 43%, 38%, 35%
* 4 Trump county T/O? 51%, 50%, 50%, 42%
* 4 slight lean Trump T/O? 43%, 42%, 41%, 38%
Turnout favoring Trump? Will keep digging in!

Wow, I just came across this article & my 12 county breakdown in 2/n was actually right in line. Dane/Milwaukee share of WI vote right now is down 3.4%, the heavy Trump WOW counties are up 1.1%. In a state that was decided by 0.6%, those are big shifts.https://t.co/U2glj8c9MM

PA VBM Analysis - 11/1 Corrected
— therealarod1984 (@therealarod1984) November 1, 2024
* Dem VBM is 55.1% of 2020
* Rep VBM is 89% of 2020
* Instead of D 1.1M Ballot "firewall" in 2020, its 394K
* Projecting forward, Trump needs 55.0%-43.9% on remaining ~ 5.1M votes
* Trump won 65% of 2020 ED (but still lost due to firewall) https://t.co/37IhmttGiD

The first of my final predictions for 8 battleground states is now released. North Carolina looks poised to go to Trump by roughly 5.1% on the strength of its early voting data and party registration trend. It is an essential hold as it retains the Core 235 electoral vote base…
