Republlicans always pray for rain on election day because, as a Republican campaign worker once told me many years ago, "it sucks to be at a bus stop when it's raining."

Although I haven't come across any numbers on predicted turnout yet, the weather across the nation favors mild conditions next week.

When it comes to weather, this could be one of the more tranquil elections days on record for the U.S.

The medium-range weather maps suggest a mostly dry and mild weather pattern across the U.S. by next Tuesday. And mild dry weather could help boost voter turnout.

Note the Jetstream is north of the 48th parallel and temperatures will be mild. Even so, I strongly support voting ASAP. I already did last week.

The thing about Trump, people are willing to stand in the rain for hours to vote him out!

Which works in Biden's favor, but as seen in the past, there's a big difference between spouting opinion and those actually showing up to vote. We'll know next week.

No way. It must have been a photo op. Out of the picture was the safe place with warm blankies......

Could be. Still, the weather conditions favor a record turnout regardless of political affiliation. I'm sure we can agree an early blizzard would reduce turnout.

A blizzard definitely would.

Agreed. Once the parameters of "too much" and "optimal" are established, bracketing weather-based voting behavior, then that behavior becomes more predictable. My guess is it's a lot more noticeable in high density areas where public transportation is common compared to rural areas even though inclement weather adversely impacts voter participation.

Regardless, weather doesn't appear to be an adverse factor for Election Day 2020.

I don't think we have an iota of data pointing to anyone voting Trump out previously. Just sayin'. lol

You're going to get a whole lotta data though, coming right up.

Might even set a record. Time will tell. The biggest relief for me is it will be O-V-E-R.
 
Democrats chose to fight the elements to vote, Trump voters are left behind in freezing condition in Omaha because of poor planning. 7 elderly Trump supporters hospitalized with hypothermia. I wonder if those folks are still Trump supporters. Trump bussed them to the rally, but left them stranded. This is the perfect demonstration of Trump’s entire Presidency. Trump has left us behind in the COVID, and he doesn’t care.
