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:

“Just by the polling which has us down at this time.”
Which polling? The propaganda ministry’s polling meant to gaslight conservatives which had Hillary up by 12 a week ago and now has Trump up one? Or will you believe the actual votes coming in?
The fact was part of a set of data provided to me by a friend in the R party in NC. THe data came from High Point as a private polling conducted for the Burr campaign, That was data compiled before the revelations of last week.
SO even if single white females are voting more against Trump the overall number of younger voters to this point is down according to the NC current data.
“Remember when little girls wanted to look like princesses?”
My little sisters are in their fifties. When we were kids, they switched back and forth between sweet and scary costumes. Mom was either a cat or a witch every year.
“Unaffiliated in NC are mostly Conservatives and vote Republican.”
That’s my suspicion and my hope.
We have one poll out of six with Trump up.
I do think we win there, just that it’ll be close. Close makes me nervous considering the stakes.
“The fact was part of a set of data provided to me by a friend in the R party in NC.?” Guess I’ll have to take your word for it then.
Even assuming your “friend” is correct it’s not as if single white women have been a large gop constituency. That’s like saying that a dem is down 3-4% with single black males.
Sure you want every vote you can get but this is a change election shaking a lot of things up. There are probably many more dems and/or AA voting rep (or not voting at all) this election than any in a long time for example. For reps to be up over 9% in early voting compared to 2012 and even the MSM polls showing Trump ahead with Indys and Indys being the biggest increase over 2012 party affiliation should be a bigger signal for reps than a 3-4% reduction with single white women in NC.
“The fact was part of a set of data provided to me by a friend in the R party in NC.”
Right the same pollsters that for example had Hillary up by 12 last week now down one this week?
I understand the nervousness because of the dems’ shenanigans but again believe the polls which have been documented ad nauseum to move the narrative for Hillary or the actual votes coming in?
Heck do we need to remind again and again about wikileaks that prove for sure that “polls” are set to gaslight conservatives?
To be honest I’m more worried about the dems and their media allies launching one more October Surprise than I am the “polls”.
Can’t disagree with that. I suspect Hillary have Miss Piggy at her rally today is the tell that something is coming.
Sorry my last reply repeated the first line. Should’ve said this:

Thank you.
“Can’t disagree with that. I suspect Hillary have Miss Piggy at her rally today is the tell that something is coming.”
Agreed for sue with you on that. The dems never stop trying dirty tricks. Even be prepared for us not to have this over on November 9th. Unless Trump is way way way ahead the dems will probably not concede for a few days while they try to figure how to game the results.
Remember Kerry was down 130,000 in Ohio and didn’t concede for what two days?
Now that would be rich. LOL at Hillary for trashing Trump for threatening our democracy by not agreeing to accept the election results before it happens.
“Now that would be rich. LOL at Hillary for trashing Trump for threatening our democracy by not agreeing to accept the election results before it happens.”
You are correct on that but unfortunately when have the dems had any shame when trying to win an election?
Oh for sure. It’s not like that will stop her for a minute.
If anyone has a doubt, look at the “pivot” on Comey. Hero to villain in the blink of an eye.
I’m a registered democrat in NC and my wife and my 3 kids
we all voted for Donald! When I was leaving the poll station and black man and women were leaving at the same time. He looked me and sang “ everyone get aboard the trump train, trump train”, too the tune of the old Soul Train TV show. nevervotedemocratagain!
He Ismail a great source for what goes on in NC. Also of interest is the note you made on black males. I believe their turnout in most states is going to be way down. No proof beyond knowledge that black males are as a group not motivated voters, tend to not vote strong for women candidates, and it is hard to see anything CLinton has done to motivate them.
Married white women are Pro Trump, White males single and married are Pro-Trump. TRump is also not doing as bad with Hispanic men as Romney. One issue with measuring Hispanic vote is that many that have lived in the US and older identify as white rather than Hispanic. THis is especially true if they do not have clearly Hispanic surnames,
