It's a reliably blue town that went 80% Clinton in 2016

I think this might be a record off-year turnout

That's on pace for 84,745 total early ballots, more than twice as many total ballots as 2014, the last off-year election. If the pace of early voting picks up over the course of 17 days, it could easily surpass the total early vote in 2012.

Generally speaking the more people who vote, the less likely Republicans will like the result.
