Romney cuts into Obama's early voter advantage (what we have all been saying!)

WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitt Romney's campaign is working hard to chip away at President Barack Obama's advantage among early voters, and there are signs the effort is paying off in North Carolina and Florida, two competitive states that the Republican nominee can ill afford to lose. Obama is doing better in Iowa, another battleground state important to both candidates.

Read the article. Pretty informative. IA info already out of date - check early voting statistics from this am. All this information we've been noting is finally breaking mainstream.

I know a lot of groups have been trying to check fraud this time out, are any working on absentee or mail-in votes?

Read the comments. No Obozo supporters on the first page.

Thanks for keeping us updated on early voting.

I sent away for my absentee ballot two weeks ago and it still hasn’t arrived.

Don’t get their idea toward the end that the Romney campaign is focusing on the early vote and won’t contact other voters after. From other articles they are doing what worked well for Obama in 2008.....get your not-always voting people to the polls early and then contact those that didn’t vote yet after to get them to the polls on election day.

This article makes it sounds like the campaign won’t do anything to get voters to the polls once early voting ends, which is completely contrary to anything else I have read.

I think this is untrue. From what I know, the Rs are doing both. They have made more calls and done more walks by far than in 08, but I don’t see that it specifically targets any particular group. I do know that in my county, a person who requests n base tee ballot gets a visit within 48 hours of it arriving.

I live in NC and our early voting period does not start until October 18. The article uses the term early voting, but as far as NC is concerned, they must be referring to request for absentee ballots.

I’ll be a third tomorrow morning.

[FlyingEagle]

Yeah , too late to be murdering Zetas and BP agents to get votes.

[max americana]

The Associate Posers mandatory “not for obama” story. They do this once a week. Tomorrow it will be “Obama polls show strong Democrat upswing” or some bullsh*t..

” which is completely contrary to anything else I have read. “

Broken glass, run over with a stream roller over hot asphalt voters.
