Purple Wave
Here in Tennessee, we’re having record midterm election turnout. The last midterm election, about 30K people voted on the first day of early voting. This year, about 120K did. For comparison, in 2016, about 140K turned out for day one. Do I think it’s a blue wave or a red wave? Yes. I think both sides are highly motivated to get out the vote. Tennessee is likely safely red. But in other states, I have no idea.

It was reported that Tennessee was one several Senate election states in which Republcans exceeded Democrats in early voting turnout. I’ve heard that typically Democrats vote in greater numbers during early voting and Republicans vote more on Election Day.
