Why Large Turnout is a Good Sign

1. Yes, republicans are generally more likely to vote. Which makes the "red meat" strategy puzzling

Republicans have increasingly relied on writing off liberals and democrats and gone all-in on turning out the base by constantly throwing them red meat.

This makes sense as a strategy to get campaign contributions, but not to turnout the vote if the vote among republicans is already pretty reliable.

Hopefully this election proves the folly of their ways....
