I can't remember what the conventional wisdom is regarding voter turnout if the weather is bad (i.e. if that bodes well for Democrats or Republicans).

Any thoughts?

She melted when she got wet!.... That's good news for the Dems. All the republicans will be little puddles!

3. Rain is late in the day I believe. Most of the people off work will likely
vote in the morning and early afternoon and only the people on the way home from work will vote when it is raining. They are out already so it should not be any disincentive.
