More Early Voting Trends From The Las Vegas Area

In Clark County, Nevada, there's five days of early voting down and nine to go. Here's the numbers:

  • 113,165 votes cast, up 60% from the 70,669 cast during the same period in 2004.
  • 57% of early voters are Democratic
  • 27% are Republican
  • 16% are unaffiliated

The interesting thing is that in the past couple of days, the Democratic advantage has accelerated. In the last two days alone:

  • 62% (!) are Democratic
  • 20% are Republican
  • 18% are unaffiliated

It's hard to see how McCain will be able to make up for this Democratic enthusiasm on election day; if anything, Republicans are growing increasingly disillusioned, which could accelerate the Democratic rout.
