Democratic ballot requests are way up compared to 2012 in NC.

Dr. Michael Blitzer is doing some analysis of the early voting in NC: http://www.oldnorthstatepolitics.com/

Some interesting graphs:





Obviously in 2012 Republicans started dominating early voting at 51 days before the election, but the outstanding main-in ballots seem to be split still between Dems and GOP.

Let's see if Democrats hold their lead for a large period of time.

Don't absentee votes generally favor Democrats? We can't tell anything from this yet.



Democrats are outperforming their 2012 numbers and the GOP is underperforming.

Some Florida news:

https://twitter.com/electionsmith/status/782929522773680128

Dems have submitted 469k new voter registration forms. GOP submitted only 59k

Wow! Any comparison to 2012? Looks like Hillary's giant GOTV advantage is starting to pay off.

Today is the critical "souls to polls" day for African-American churches in North Carolina. There is no NC Sunday in-person voting next week.

Pisses me off so much that they did that. I hope they feel energized to vote because of the NC GOP's efforts to disenfranchise them.
