NBC News correspondent Vaughn Hillyard dropped a bombshell this Wednesday about early voting in Arizona, and it’s not looking good for Kamala Harris.
Despite all the media hype around her, not a single early voter interviewed by Hillyard’s team mentioned they were backing the vice president. Hillyard noted that Republicans are currently dominating the early voting scene in Arizona, with GOP voters outpacing Democrats two-to-one, as reported by the Daily Caller [1].
Trump voters like Jim Coddington were making a concerted effort to vote early, a stark contrast to what we saw in past elections. This year, people are making a “special effort” to get out and vote..
Another Mohave County voter, Shelley Schwarz, echoed that sentiment, saying this was her first time voting early, and it was Trump’s persistent encouragement that got her there. “He keeps saying it, and I’ve been thinking about it, and so here I am,” she explained.
Hillyard also noted that some voters who didn’t even vote in 2020 felt compelled to vote early in 2024 due to the current state of the country. One voter said that he didn’t vote in 2020, but this time around, he was “horrified by the state of the country.”
Hillyard mentioned that three additional voters shared that they had recently moved to Arizona from blue states to show their support for Trump.
MSNBC went to Mojave County in Arizona and discovered two unsettling truths for Democrats:
1) They couldn’t find a single Kamala voter
2) Conservatives are lining up to vote early.

According to the most recent polls, Trump is leading Arizona by a narrow margin of 49% to 47%, a critical development as Arizona was narrowly won by Biden in 2020.
Back then, Biden secured the state by a razor-thin margin of 49.4% to Trump’s 49.1%, marking a key shift from 2016, when Trump defeated Hillary Clinton with 49.5% to 45.4%.
