No way this can be true, J.J. told me NC was gone for Obama.
It isn't. D turnout is running well behind 2008. In theory, Obama could be tied in early voting, but that would be a disaster for him.
Huh?
Democratic turnout at this point in the cycle:
2012- 502,855
2008- 447,956
How does that translate into D turnout running well behind 2008?

This day in 2008:
D 533,384 55.92%
R 259,813 27.24%
U 160,069 16.78%
Yesterday:
D 502,855 50.7%
R 302,684 30.52%
U 184,505 18.6%
D's are down 33,000 while R's are up 43,000. That is a net loss of 77,000 votes, and this is a period where D's are voting heavier.
I believe there is a glitch in the Civitas system. Once midnight rolled around their 4 years ago page changed but not their current one. You have to wait until after yesterdays totals are added in the morning to get a true comparison.
