Democrats have spent a shit-ton on GOTV efforts, and there's good evidence it's working.
In North Carolina, which permits early voting, 42,230 people had requested ballots as of Monday. Of that group, 17,364 did not vote in 2010, and among them, Democrats outnumber Republicans, 39 percent to 32 percent.
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee reports that more than 21,000 Iowans who did not vote four years ago have already cast ballots: 53 percent of them are registered Democrats, 28 percent are unaffiliated, and 19 percent are Republicans.
North Carolina Republicans have historically done well in mail voting. (In 2010, they cast 44 percent versus just 35 percent for Democrats.) But for now registered Democrats have requested slightly more absentee ballots, and they've also returned more ballots.
What's promising to Democrats: A large share of the absentee ballot requests has come from voters who did not cast a ballot in 2010 (41 percent, to be exact)—and these new voters are more Democratic than the state's usual mail-voting population: As of Sunday night, registered Democrats had a 7 percentage point edge among those who requested an absentee ballot this year but who had not voted at all in 2010.
In Douglas County [Nebraska], about 16,000 voters have already picked-up a ballot, and 65 percent have come for registered Democrats versus just 21 percent for registered Republicans.
all is not as dim as reporting polls and biased reporters are saying the tide turner is getting out the vote showing up and letting them know as Rev. Al said "lots of things were acceptable until we stopped accepting them", stop accepting their trying to steal and silence your vote show them you care and so do everyone you know meet and greet at the voting polls and don't let our country go back.
