I don’t know the NC law, but most states remove inactive voters after two cycles. I do think they should do it after the presidential election rather than before because the presidential race is when infrequent voters turn out. The procedure generally is to mail them a notice that they will be removed unless they respond. For the people that moved, they can change their voter registration when they update their drivers license or state ID. |

The Gallup poll on party identification (not registration):
https://news.gallup.com/poll/651092/2024-election-environment-favorable-gop.aspx It relies heavily on "leans", which doesn't necessarily translate into Trump support. It is a drastic shift though. The monthly polls show some absurd swings - +/-5% back and forth. https://news.gallup.com/poll/15370/Party-Affiliation.aspx |
Where are the missing 1.5 Million people? |
Looks like the GOP has been successful in mass voter purges. |

Luzerne County, PA. The Wilkes-Barre county between Scranton and Allentown. It was traditionally a Democratic county but the last few cycles has been leaning steadily more and more Right. In 2020, was as much as a 49K lead by Democrats. This cycle, they Republicans new voter registrations have outnumbered Democratic and as of this week: 87,415 Republicans and 87,332 Democrats — a difference of 83. That said, in 2020, the county voted 64,873 Biden and 86,929 Trump, so losing this county to Trump does not change the 2020 math, other than to what degree. It already was leaning right. |
| Harris is underperforming Biden in almost every swing state and even underperforming Clinton in some states like Michigan and Wisconsin. Dems need to stop acting like they have an edge. The polls don’t reflect that. |
The polls are basically 50-50 in every swing state. Everyone knows this is going to be close to the end. |
Biden and Clinton had campaigns operating for well over a year ahead of their elections. Harris has been running for president for basically two months. She was VP of a very unpopular POTUS that exited this same POTUS race under not so great terms just a few weeks before the party convention. She is slowly crawling out from under that Biden cloud and introducing herself as her own person. She still has 6 weeks before the election to win over the swing voters. There is no reason she can't do that considering the weal competition. Giver her a chance and have faith. |

In the economist model:
Harris is at a 3 in 5 chance with 281 to Trump 257 electoral votes. |
