I will leave it to others to compare to 2008.

[TEXOKIE]

Do we believe these numbers?

[goldstategop]

This is devastating to Obama. Stick a fork in him, he’s done! The GOP has the early voting advantage and all the reports in the last few weeks were way off!

As are the polls.

[dforest]

Since this is from AP, I am not interested.

[Gasshog]

BS too early for data to be released yet

[Lou Budvis]

NC and IA look troubling.

[trussell]

What about independants? The Republicans haven’t got off work yet!

[WILLIALAL]

What is the story in North Carolina? Someone from there know? Is there a large Rep turn out on election day to catch up?

[goldstategop]

You think AP would have good news for Obama, if only to depress GOP turnout. They have none!

I cannot believe our good fortune. The polls gave no hint of this at all. Its not even close.

[BuckeyeGOP]

I believe these are EARLY voting numbers....not votes from today yet

[CatOwner]

"NC and IA look troubling."

I was thinking the same thing.

[traditional1]

Those are absolutely phony numbers, and they don't have that kind of data available yet.

How can EVERY one have that kind of Dem participation, out-voting Republicans in 100% of the cases (if I'm reading their numbers correctly?)

[Pete]

I don't believe it. My understanding is that it is illegal to release Ohio early voting results until the polls close so it is unlikely AP has them.

Another thing to keep in mind, AP dropped 19 states from the exit polling this cycle: 15 red states and 4 blue. Another reason exit polls will be bogus.

Just Do It!
Show Up And VOTE.
Vote Romney/Ryan

[Jaguarmike]

Remember, this is early voting, which nearly always favors Democrats. Republicans do much better at GOTV on election day.

[Smogger]

They are all from states that allow early voting so. Yes. They are not from TODAY’s polling. Early voting ended yesterday.

[ShasheMac]

Just read this line on Facebook:

Vote like you’re stranded in Benghazi and Obama is your lifeline.

Love it!

[Perdogg]

because you are a troll.

[Thane_Banquo]

These numbers look wrong.

[dfwgator]

Democrats have more time on their hands to do EV.
