Tomorrow, North Carolina voters who requested an absentee ballot will begin to receive their ballots.

Voters will not be receiving their ballots tomorrow. Ballots will be sent out to voters around the state on September 4th and 5th, but voters have been told that the earliest they should expect their ballots is September 8th or 9th.

When do we start getting consistent daily updates from states with modeled/registered party IDs? I know they don't mean too much, except maybe this year when most voters are likely to vote using VBM, but at least it gives me something to look forward to in this subforum.

As with many aspects of North Carolina voting and registration, the data on who has returned an absentee ballot is publicly available.

https://www.ncsbe.gov/results-data/absentee-data

Current Accepted Ballots:
Democrat — 13,075 (57.6%)
Unaffiliated — 6,557 (28.9%)
Republican — 3,018 (13.3%)
Other — 59 (0.3%)

Do with that what you will. It's only 22,709 votes. Or 0.5% of the total votes cast in North Carolina in 2016.

I guess I'll add my personal experience. I requested a ballot on the 10th and only yesterday did the ballot get sent out (I still won't get it for another week or two). Called the county board of elections and they said that that's normal: requests are taking two to three weeks to fill because of volume. They mentioned that part of that is because requests are up from 6,000 to 45,000 since 2016.
