this article makes no sense.
are they counting votes in NC ?
Not according to N.C.’s election web site.
http://www.ncsbe.gov/Elections/Election-Information

early voting in NC doesn’t start until 10/20/16,
Absentee ballots\vote by mail can begin 9/9/16.
How do they know Hillary has strength in N.C. ?

MSM lies with abandon to depress GOP turnout.

Ignore them and go and vote!

“how do they know ,unless they already opened the ballots”

Think they can tell which party has returned and they assume that party voted democrat. As another poster on here has said many of these dems could be voting for Trump.

“Broken down by party, Democrats made up 40 percent of the ballots returned so far compared to 33 percent for Republicans. At this point in 2012, Republicans were running slightly ahead, 43 percent to 38 percent, in ballots submitted.”

North Carolinians will put on their TV’s tonite, see the rioting and mayhem, and will vote for Trump, Mark my words.

Not only leaves too much time for mischief - but imagine all of the events that could take place in the meantime.

It's like having actual voting data out while the west coast states are still voting (an attempt to swing the election while it is still happening).

Who is letting this voting data out?? Polling those voters is OK but data from actual votes is NOT!

I would say Illary’s shot at NC just got flushed down the crapper.
