More Early Voting Trends From The Las Vegas Area

In Clark County, Nevada, there's five days of early voting down and nine to go. Here's the numbers:

* 113,165 votes cast, up 60% from the 70,669 cast during the same period in 2004.
* 57% of early voters are Democratic
* 27% are Republican
* 16% are unaffiliated

The interesting thing is that in the past couple of days, the Democratic advantage has accelerated. In the last two days alone:

* 62% (!) are Democratic
* 20% are Republican
* 18% are unaffiliated

It's hard to see how McCain will be able to make up for this Democratic enthusiasm on election day; if anything, Republicans are growing increasingly disillusioned, which could accelerate the Democratic rout.

1. Lots of out of work people there.

Also, lots of people have lost, or are in the process of losing their homes.

I won't be surprised to see Nevada go blue this year.
