From the article:

“registered Democrats account for about 58 percent of votes cast by seniors, compared to 35 percent for Republicans.”

    The gap in early voting was never going to be as wide as 2020. Trump was actively telling his cult to NOT vote early. Now they’re telling them to do just that.

    At the end of the day, the take-home message of this article is that Democrats are over-performing with seniors relative to 2020.

    Trump is running 5 percentage points behind Harris among voters ages 65 and over, slipping back from the previous month, when he and Harris were tied with that demographic. It’s a major shift from 2020, when Trump carried 53 percent of the senior vote in Pennsylvania in a losing effort in the state.
