Black turnout will be slightly down, but all other demographics will be up, some by a lot. I'd say 68%.

Another question: Will Hillary receive the most votes of any US presidential candidate ever? Is it within the realm of possibility?

That will only be the case in Florida and Nevada. Perhaps Arizona too. It will be lower in other states.

I saw somewhere that turnout is expected to be around 135 million, so Hillary would need to get about 51.8% of the vote to top Obama's raw vote count in 2008. Doable, but I'd bet against it.

There are about 230 million VEP, so 60% would be ~138 million.

I predicted 135 million or 59%, but it could go higher than 60% too.

Turnout by Race:

White: 35-40% increase
AA: Down 10-15%
Hispanic: 40-50% increase
First time voters: 30-40% increase

Increase in overall turnout for every voting group besides AA's which will be down a good amount.

Umm, white turnout last election was about 65%. You expect it to hit 90%?

My guess is between 60 to 63 percent voter turnout.

I'm working as a poll worker in a small part of NYC. My poll site alone just between 6am and now , we've had at least 500 people. And it's not even midday. Any chance that there's much higher turnout than most are anticipating?
