Old North State ^

Posted on 11/01/2016 6:09:06 AM PDT by UKrepublican

With over 216,000 absentee ballots added on Halloween, North Carolina's absentee ballot pool is getting closer to two million ballots, with 95 percent of those having been accepted as votes for the November 8 general election, now a week away (and everyone say AMEN).

The total absentee ballots, by party registration and method of voting, stands at 1,970,525

This represents a nearly 8 percent increase from the same day in 2012.

In terms of party registration within the voting methods (both mail-in and in-person), the total ballots breaks down to 43 percent from registered Democrats, 31 percent from registered Republicans, and 25 percent from registered unaffiliated:

That’s what I thought. Either that or he struck a deal with Comey to come out any day and say Hillary is completely exonerated.

I live in the Piedmont of North Carolina, here we have Yellow Dog Democrats and Blue Dog Democrats.
My opinion, the Yellow Dog are Clinton democrats, Blue Dog are a bit more conservative.
During election 2012, 2 women got into a fight at the polling place, the democrat was charged, minor charges.
This year seems very calm.

No it looks like we are doing better than 4 years ago. Hope you can follow the data.

Hopefully it means the men in red won’t need to stand next to many sour old feminist that are still worried they might need another abortion at 68 on election day.

57% of the early vote being women is not particularly encouraging I must say.

How in the world do they know the race of the person on the ballot?

“I wonder how many folks in North Carolina are gonna discover next Tuesday that they already voted?”

Ha! Very good question.

Ravi says “0”. I suspect it will be significantly more.

African Americans only make up 22% of the electorate this year, compared to 28% in 2012 when Romney women the state by 3. That is a killer decline in turnout for Hillary. NC is getting close to solid Trump.

McDonald still claiming NC better for Democrats because he thinks the white male unaffiliated voters are Hillary supporters somehow. I can’t wait to see his Tweets on the 9th.

Yup.

The D +7, D +8, D +9, D +10 turnout are fantasy territory.

Hillary doesn’t inspire the loyalty Obama did.

I’m one of those white male unaffiliated voters. I vote Hillary for prison. Trump in a landslide.

I checked 2012 and it was 56% women.

Romney lost women by 2% and won men by 9%.

The latest poll (remington) shows trump winning men by 7% and losing women by 7%.

I’d expect polls to move more positive trump as we get closer to election, but it could be a problem

That is a nice fantasy by McDonald. Unaffiliated voters are 85% white, and 55 percent of them voted in the GOP primary.

Ah, thanks! That does make me feel better.

Any idea what the final gender breakdown in N Carolina was?

They’re working on trying to steal a good dozen states IMO.

Yup. I don’t understand why he’s so willingly ignorant.

Also in NC white Democrats tend to go for the R more often then the rest of the nation. Keep drilling into cross tabs and it gets worse and worse for H. She’s losing NC by more than a 5 point margin,
