Trump is coming pretty close to me again on Thursday. He’s living in NC. I hope he hits PA enough.
And most Dems who vote early vote often.
Early voted today. No line but steady.
My daughter and I voted yesterday at a library near a large public housing apartment building in Asheville. I did not see one black person there. Of course, there were a lot of football games on.
Few tidbits compared to 2012: Dems down 3.7%, GOP up 5.1% and unaffiliated up a whopping 37%!
Most unaffiliated white (80%) and equal split M:F ratio.
18-29 yo vote share in 2012 early voting was 13.2%.
18-29 yo vote share thus far in 2016 is 9.9%.

Awesome!
Excellent news! I wish someone would take a look at NV. I’m hearing some mixed info and would love to see something positive there as well.

Me too. I keep filling out my map and can get to 259 or 260 EVs but don’t know much about Nevada, New Mexico, New Hampshire, or Colorado.

A new poll shows up up again in NH, but we’ll need NV or CO to go with it. We haven’t had a lead in CO and NV in quite some time. Early voting analysis might confirm where we stand. I hear that we’re down in both, but the sources were dem hacks. Anyone on Free republic have any insights? It’s a very tough map for us without NV.
Yes they will. 80% white, 50/50 male and not millenials. Trump likely wins by 15-20%
Was that the one with Jesse Jackson and five other guys proudly marching down the street to vote for Hillary. :-)
Even Jesse can’t draw a crowd these days.
I will say this for Jesse—he looked a whole lot healthier than Hillary.
The new Remington poll has Trump win unaffiliated votes by 17%. Seems high to me, I would settle for 10%. Today’s results for in-person voting was even better than yesterday’s.
“While there are more ballots than four years ago, of the accepted in-person ballots so far, registered Democrats are slightly behind their 2012 same-day totals (down 4 percent), while registered Republicans are ahead (14 percent) and registered unaffiliated voters are well ahead (41 percent) of their same day numbers from four years ago.”
I’m in Fayetteville. Just voted (Trump of course). The AA turnout is just not there like it was for the faux messiah. Not a one in there. In 2008 and 2012 they were lined up in masses.
Thanks for your first person account
I’ve always voted on election day. I’m just paranoid they’ll do something to my vote. Trump is encouraging early voting, so I’m considering it, but I don’t know.
An aside Anecdotal observation today: I voted today at the main polling site in Wilmywood NC. What I observed were the usual gazillion local/state race signs everywhere. There were Trump/Pence signs everywhere and a T/P tent buzzing with activity. What I DID NOT see anywhere were ANY Hillary signs - zero, zilch, nada. There was a Clinton tent set up and the only activity under it was the dude running things all kicked back in a folding lawn chair. That was it! I’ve seen literally no Clinton yard signs or bumper stickers around town since campaigning started. This doesn’t mean much in the overall big picture, but it was surreal.
And to take a step back, the reason most are being in affiliated is disgust with either party. And the major reason is corruption. So Indys will beat HRC LIKE A RENTED MULE. Libs hope they get 50% of Indys they will lose them 25/75.
