GOP continues gains on Dems in last voter registration update

Republican voter registrants nearly tripled Democratic sign-ups in October, according to data released today.

Republicans gained 16,945 registrants last, compared to 6,015 for Democrats. Republicans have gained ground on Democrats in recent months, and Democrats now outnumber Republicans by about 906,000.

Notably, unaffiliated registrants outnumbered both parties last month, with 44,484 new registrants. Obviously, it’s difficult to predict how they may vote.

Democrats now comprise 37.7% of registered voters, while Republicans account for 24.2% of statewide registrants. Those rates are similar to last month’s — with more than 6.7 million registered voters in the state, making a dent in the overall composition takes a lot.
