Here's a question for a Nevada number cruncher:
I've been following the reports on Nevada early/absentee voting as they have been appearing Ryan Lizza's campaign journal, on the New Republic online, at the link
http://www.tnr.com/blog/campaignjournal
The tack is that Ds are only running about 4% ahead of Rs for early voting in Clark county, whereas they are neck-and-neck and Washoe, making it hard to predict who will win since the CW had always been that the Rs win big upstate and the Ds need a 10pt lead or so in Clark to win the whole thing
It seems like the real question Lizza should be asking "What was the partisan breakdown of early voting in Nevada in 2000 and how does that compare to what's happening now?"
I tried looking at the Nevada elections site but it doesn't seem to have such detailed information.
Do any Nevada knowledgeable Kossacks know the answer?
