How did early voting data influence the predictions for the Nevada election results?

Early voting data in Nevada showed a strong GOP firewall, with a significant turnout advantage for Republicans. This data suggested that Kamala Harris would struggle to win the state due to a lack of support from independent voters.

What role did Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter play in the 2024 election?

Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter allowed for greater freedom of expression, enabling the spread of truthful information that likely influenced undecided voters, particularly those who were unaware of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020.

Why was Sean Parnell's ground game strategy crucial for winning Pennsylvania?

What was the most significant tactical error made by the Democrats in the 2024 election?

How did Scott Pressler's efforts contribute to the Republican victories in Pennsylvania?
