[Jackson]

The raw vote totals tells a story of a Republican Victory in November. After tallying the raw votes for each party in the states voting so far. the Republicans appear to have an edge of voter turnout. Some states are dramatic with only three favoring the Democrats.

So far the states voting have tallied the number of votes for each party:

Alabama
R 858,000
D 401,000

Arkansas
R 398,000
D 156,000

Georgia
R 923,000
D 761,000

Massachusetts
R 630,000
D 1,205,000

Minnesota
R 112,000
D 185,000

Oklahoma
R 461,000
D 215,000

Tennessee
R 855,000
D 370,000

Texas
R 2,831,000
D 528,000

Vermont
R 62,000
D 134,000

Virginia
R 865,000
D 783,000

Iowa
R 184,000
D 14,000

New Hampshire
R 260,000
D 250,000

That is nine states who favor a Republican win and three who favor a Democrat win. The Democrats just are not as enthusiastic for their candidates and the Republicans are. Years 2010 and 2012 were the first years the anger was experienced in country and those years went for Republicans in the Congress. The anger is even stronger now, for the majority of Republican states are going to Trump.

Is this a glimpse of November?

There is little doubt that Bernie is inspiring a lot of that vote. The Democrats are as excited about Hillary as they are with her emails.

That's true. I think many of the millennials will just not turn out for Hillary.

Yeah, millennials will not turn out for Hillary and blacks will not for Bernie. The black vote is going to tank to pre-2008 levels anyway.

Millennials are not thrilled with either HRC or DT.

In 1988, the Democratic primaries had a vastly greater turnout than the Republican primaries.

So, how'd the administration of President Dukakis turn out?

Historically, primary turnout has no correlation with general election turnout. In 1988, Bush Sr. was a default primary winner, much like Hillary, so there was little interest in the Republican primary, so the competitive Democrat primaries saw a much bigger turnout.

‘Bernie or Bust’: Clinton can’t count on Sanders’ supporters in November

The movement is called “Bernie or Bust,” and it means just that: If Sen. Bernard Sanders of Vermont loses the Democratic presidential nomination, a group of his supporters will either write in his name in the general election or consider casting their ballot for a Republican.

The one thing they certainly won’t do: Vote forHillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton can’t count on Bernie Sanders’ supporters in November

Beneath Hillary Clinton’s Super Tuesday Wins, Signs of Turnout Trouble

Hillary Clinton set out 10 months ago to inspire and energize the Democratic Party, hoping to bring together the rising American electorate of black, brown, young and female voters into a durable presidential coalition. But buried beneath Mrs. Clinton’s wide-ranging and commanding victories on Tuesday night were troubling signs of a party that has not yet rallied to her call.

Democratic turnout has fallen drastically since 2008, the last time the party had a contested primary, with roughly three million fewer Democrats voting in the 15 states that have held caucuses or primaries through Tuesday, according to unofficial election results tallied through Wednesday afternoon.
