A Majority of Democratic Votes Were Not Cast at the Polls

Despite its Democratic majority, Delaware’s voting rules are among the most restrictive in the country. Perhaps that Democratic majority ought to rethink that — in yesterday’s Democratic senatorial primary, 52% of the votes were absentee ballots vs. 48% cast in person. Chris Coons was particularly dependent on early voting, with only 43% of his votes cast in person vs. 60% for Jessica Scarane.

Meanwhile, on the Republican side, 77% of voters cast ballots in person, bringing the total percentage of absentee ballots down to 43.6% of those cast. They really do have a herd mentality.
