We're up to 11,672,900 votes cast already, nationwide, by Americans who didn't participate in the last presidential election.

1. I hope that's true

Makes me wonder how they arrived at that figure, however.

2. where does this data come from?

i know states are publishing data on votes cast and absentee ballots returned but i haven't seen any data on individual voters and whether they cast a ballot in 2016 or not. so where did he obtain that number?

It's not just a youth surge though, the younger voters who are fueling this massive turnout increase are more likely to be Dems. At this point Dems have a lead of almost 30 pts in modeled partisanship, up from 21 pts at this point in 2016.

Voters under the age of 30 now account for a larger share of the electorate than they did at this point in '16. And that's while older voters are surging on their own.

3. That's awesome if true. I just hope they're all...

voting for Biden/Harris and other Democrats because I want there to be such a HUGE tsunami of a cleansing blue wave that there is ZERO question that Biden/Harris and Democrats have won.

4. Probably not, but the marginal increase in voters should have...

...better support for Democrats than the usual voters.

5. Yreah, I know logically "probably not" but...

a gal can hope and fantasize a bit right?

6. I hope it's mostly Biden/Harris voters.

It probably is, but I'm not ready to celebrate that information yet.

10. There Are Estimates by Target Smart that Biden Will Get up to 70% of these First Time Voters

Check out the site. They have each States votes broken down with demographic info like age and sex and well as whether they are first time, casual or frequent voters based on prior voting history. It also has the head to head analysis based on votes using Party Registration or some other method.

11. Thanks!

8. Another post showed the biggest increase is

among the 18-? age group. I’m guessing most of them are voting dem.
