In reply to the discussion: Early Voting Bombshell Results [View all]not_the_one
(2,227 posts)43. The turd is going to use election day votes to declare his win.
The votes reported that night will NOT include a LOT of mail-in votes. It may take another week to count them all. But the turd wants to declare victory by 10 pm election night, so any votes after the vote he reports will be part of the "rigging" of the election. It is part of his set up to take it to the supreme court.
So a lot of republicans will be waiting to vote until election day, to bump up his numbers that will be reported the night of the election.
So early voting is "cannibalizing" the votes he wants to use to declare his victory. Or that is how Ms. Greenspan sees it...
