Early voting is underway in a number of states, and the preliminary results could spell trouble for Vice President Kamala Harris amid an unexpected spike in Republicans choosing to bank their votes ahead of Election Day.
As of Tuesday morning, more than 15.2 million mail-in and in-person ballots have been cast nationwide, according to NBC News.
Of the early voters, Democrats account for 46 percent, while Republicans comprise 36 percent. Eighteen percent are not affiliated with either major party.
At this juncture, it’s not surprising that Democrats are ahead, since the party has aggressively pushed mail-in voting. Indeed, it was mass mail-in voting that pushed President Joe Biden over the finish line back in 2020.
Republicans have historically endorsed in-person voting on Election Day, citing voter-fraud concerns using the mail-in method.

We must beat them at their own game
