All that reminds me ...... I heard at least 4 times today (by Clinton INC surrogates) that the "black vote" is suppressed in North Carolina, due to polling places". That would be a concern to me except for one thing .... Early voting is UP in North Carolina by 25% over 2012. So what is it they are saying? Are they saying that black voters are turned aways from the polling places and not allowed to vote? Are they saying that black voters are just too dumb to go down to the polling stations .. that other voters (by an increase of 25%) have no problem locating?

Early NC voting is up overall but A-A early voting is down:

Last year, North Carolina’s county election boards, which are controlled by Republicans, moved the location of almost one-third of the state’s early voting sites. Those changes, according to new data analysis by a consulting firm that was shared with MSNBC, will significantly increase the distance African-Americans have to travel to vote early, while leaving white voters largely unaffected.
We went through that in 2012 here in Miami. A lot of people can't wait 3-4 hours to vote sometimes so they just leave. I bet my bottom dollar NC is not gonna have their results on November 8 because people will still be standing in line when CNN projects the new president.
I was in line like for 6 hours in 2012. It was horrible. I felt so bad for the people standing in line under the hot Florida sun, some voters were older and even disabled. It still pisses me off when I remember what they did to us 4 years ago.
This year not only we got our 14 back days but Rick Alien Scott our governor was forced to extend registration for a week due to Hurricane Matthew.

I cannot believe FL voters re-elected Alien for a 2nd term, even after his dismal ratings. I felt as bad about him getting re-elected as I would if Trump won. Alien can't even string together a complete paragraph. He runs away from the press when they question him. He had his hand in getting homeowner's insurance rates raised for most Floridians. At least he's out in 2 years.

I voted in Asheville NC in Montford neighborhood which has a fair share of blacks and there was no line.
I went to the Library on Monday, my day off from work, and handed the ballots in for my wife and I. Took me about 45 seconds.
Good for you but I would not mail my ballot here in FL knowing republicans, Trump and his team of crooked lawyers want to invalidate my ballot with any excuse like they are trying to do now in Broward county.
Thanks but no thanks. We know the kind of crooks we have here in charge in FL
Nov. 3, at 6:17 p.m. EDT Clinton 65.2% Trump 34.8%
Nov. 3, at 11:51a.m. EDT Clinton 63.9% Trump 36.1% << high water mark?
Nov. 2, at 9:31 p.m. EDT Clinton 65.4% Trump 34.5%
Nov. 1, at 6:04 p.m. EDT Clinton 69.6% Trump 30.3%
First sign of a momentum break -- this may be the end of the FBI Letter bump. He can't afford to stall now, the clock is running out, he needs to carry this momentum to 50% or higher by Tuesday.
Let's hope this trend continues: 33% right now.
