Early Voting Results
Obama grabs wide lead among those who have already voted: Reuters/Ipsos poll
Quote:
Obama's doing well with early voters, at least according to one poll that puts him at 59 percent against Romney's 31 percent among those who have already voted.
That poll, from Reuters/Ipsos, has a pretty big "credibility interval" of 10 percentage points for early voters, though Obama still leads above that margin.
So why the focus on early voting? First, because early voting turnout has been high this election, including in battleground states, at least partially because both campaigns are encouraging supporters to take advantage of early voting opportunities. And second, early voters heavily favored Obama and Democrats in 2008, as Slate explained earlier this month. High early voter turnout is expected to help Team Obama, and, if the Reuters poll is to be believed, for good reason.
But, as Reuters notes, the GOP is trying to claim some of that momentum for its own, despite the numbers heavily leaning in Obama's favor:
The Romney campaign says it is leading or even with Obama among early voters in several closely fought battleground states, including Florida, North Carolina, Colorado, Nevada and New Hampshire. The campaign says it has seen a spike in volunteering and voter enthusiasm among Republicans since Romney's strong debate performance against Obama on October 3. According to the Reuters poll, about 7 percent of those surveyed have already voted out of a sample of 6,704 respondents. At least 40 states have already opened up the voting process with the election weeks away.

I thought it was a secret ballot. You are amazing, KarlMarxRoxny. Not only do you know who shot through the window in Denver, you also know how these people are voting. Where do you get your "inside" information, or are just psychic?

exactly. exit polls aren't a full tally of votes. marginal sampling set at best. that's what gets the newshacks .. er newscasters into trouble when they rush to call a State too early.
As the old adage says ..
Don't count your socialist chickens until they hatch. Or not.

No one really knows what the count is but if I was a democrat I wouldn't be bragging about how stupid or partisan their voters are. Voting early, unless you're going to be out of town, is stupidity.

Early voting traditionally favors the Republican candidate. If anyone hears that ballots are being counted "early" I hope the "anyone" reports it .... loud and clear ... so the U.S. Marshals can take over the ballots and hold them until someone can figure out WTF is going on.
Exit polls are bogus at best. And any side that releases favorable results is stupid.
Apparently, there are some liberal notheads on here who actually believe that announcing victory early will get the conservatives to follow Obaminable like the judas goat to the slaugher ... in other words the "sheep" want to be on the "winning team"???
Weak to say the least.
