Lara Trump predicts early turnout is how GOP is ‘going to win’

Republican National Committee Co-Chair Lara Trump said record early voting in swing states stands to play well for her party’s nominee, former President Donald Trump.

With less than three weeks left until the election, both the Kamala Harris and Trump campaigns are focused on garnering votes from swing states, including Georgia and North Carolina where early voting began earlier this week. Both states offer 16 electoral votes and both reported record-breaking early turnout.

“You’re talking right now about my home state, Will, of North Carolina. We have seen early vote totals there that are outpacing Democrats, meaning the first two days of early voting, which was Thursday and Friday, Republicans had a thousand more votes than Democrats coming out of those two days,” Lara Trump explained on Fox and Friends Sunday. “We never see that; it’s like an 80/20 split in the Democrats’ favor.”

Meanwhile, more than 622,000 Georgia voters have turned in their ballots in the first two days of early in-person voting. According to Lara Trump, this is all going according to the Trump campaign’s plan.

“Listen, I have felt a little bit like a broken record over the course of the past several months because all I’ve talked about, the messaging you’ve heard from Donald Trump, the messaging from the campaign, and the RNC has been: ‘Vote early, vote early.’ And what we’re seeing is that people have heard this, and they are actually executing this,” she said. “This is how we’re going to win, guys.”

The turnout in North Carolina comes despite Hurricane Helene ravaging parts of the state. Ten days before early voting began, the state’s election board unanimously voted to offer more ways to obtain and deliver absentee ballots.

In Georgia, the previous record for early voting was in 2002, when 136,000 votes were cast on the first day. Tuesday alone saw more than 312,000 in-person ballots.
