What This Measures

  • Dem Primary Universe: voters who cast a Democratic ballot in any of the last 4 primaries
  • Rep Primary Universe: voters who cast a Republican ballot in any of the last 4 primaries
  • Turnout %: how many from each universe have already voted early
  • Higher Dem turnout % = more Dem-leaning ballots already cast = favorable for Dem candidates
  • Gaps widen or close as election day approaches. Watch daily trend

When an Election is Live

  • Daily EV file auto-ingested from harrisvotes.com
  • Real precinct-level turnout by universe
  • Daily delta. Who jumped overnight
  • Trend line: is the Dem universe accelerating or stalling?
  • Split by race (each contest on the ballot)
