I would guess there are very few traditional GOP voters who are voting a solid Dem ticket. Anybody who votes early is, by definition, at least somewhat enthusiastic.

And that is a YUUUUGE problem for Trump. He has no ground operation. If his supporters aren't out there voting early, a lot of them will end up sitting at home Tuesday drinking beer and cleaning their guns. I bet this ends up not being particularly close.
