I'm not sure the voters that decide early are really doing it based on being 'more informed'.

- jimmygrapes 6y agoAnother way to put it might be that they are more secure in what they wish to see from a policy standpoint, and the personality-based sideshow of a campaign is usually irrelevant to that. Assuming of course that any given candidate is upfront about their platform and sticks to it.
- Talanes 6y agoTheir claim wasn't that early deciding voters are more informed, but that more informed voters decide earlier. IE: That more informed voters are a subset of the population of early deciding voters. The counterpoint would be informed voters who make late decisions, not low-information voters who decide early.
- maxerickson 6y agoMy counterpoint is that early informed voters aren't any meaningful percentage of voters!
