Minnesota 1.7 Mil requested 911,000 returned and accepted so far

As Minnesota moves to its weekend and weekday expanded early voting hours this weekend, already half of all requested absentee ballots have been returned and accepted. That works out to a quarter of all eligible voters.

For reference 2016 had 677,000 total.

This is how you really skew the polls.

1. The conventional wisdom is high turnout favors Democrats

That's a reality Republicans believe and the reason for so many laws suppressing the vote.

2. WE ALWAYS KICK ASS AT VOTING

I don't know why I am yelling!

3. There are only 3,537,003 total registered voters in Minnesota altogether. That's almost 1/3

of all the voters that have already turned in their ballots, not just 1/4.

On edit: Bad math....it is almost exactly 25%

4. Well its almost 1/3 of normal.

even though Minnesota is normally the highest turnout state in even a presidential election the would normally put them in the low 80's so it would be around a third of the expected votes cast.
