3. Democrats continue to turnout a higher percentage of their voters vs Republicans in every single Florida county. Statewide Dems have turned out 14% of their base vs 9% for the GOP. Could be the GOP's tendency to vote late. Could be beef prices. Who knows?
4. The best I can tell you is that we'll just have to wait and see how Dems perform on Day 3 of IPEV. So far, it's been all gas and no brakes.

1. Against all odds, Florida Democrats today expanded their vote lead to 60,000. This is pre-COVID turnout in a post-COVID world. This is probably not what @FloridaGOP was anticipating. It may also be the reason why @DemGovs just wired David Jolly $1 million.
2. If I were @FlaDems, I'd be waving that chart in the face of every megadonor in the country right now. Even at a 41%-30% split in the electorate, could you possibly imagine a better set of political circumstances to roll the dice on? Currently D+4.3
As we dive into the tables, charts and maps, let's discuss the big takeaways.
1. It was a massive day for turnout. In 2022, the first day of IPEV saw 108k voters show up to the polls. Today? 165k. That is, obviously, a significant change. Counting mail, 256k
6. Over the years we have built an excellent suite of tools that allows voters to dive deep into the live data. Please share it with your friends. All of the products above can be found here: freshtake.vote/2026G/index.p…
I've redesigned our precinct maps to visualize turnout based on the county avg. This should be helpful to county executive committees and precinct captains so they can steer their resources effectively. Partisan data is only available to PCs, parties and candidates.
