Republicans are celebrating promising turnout figures, suggesting that former President Donald Trump is shifting the electoral map beyond the usual swing states.
Traditionally, these states include Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, and North Carolina. However, a new contender has emerged: Nevada, a state that hasn’t voted Republican in two decades.
Recent reports indicate that Trump has established a 5-point lead over Vice President Kamala Harris. If these trends continue, Trump could become the first Republican presidential candidate to win Nevada since George W. Bush in 2004, as reported by Trending Politics News.
Newly released early voting data shows that Republicans hold a 2.5% advantage in turnout—a notable achievement given the party’s historical hesitance towards voting methods perceived as prone to fraud.
Over 333,000 ballots have been cast, representing 16.6% of the state’s electorate. While Republicans are making headway, the urban Las Vegas area shows a narrower margin, with Democrats maintaining a slight 1-point lead in exit polls.
