Washington state elector says he won’t vote for Clinton

Voting activists and volunteers fanned out across the presidential battleground of North Carolina on Saturday’s final day of early in-person voting to urge undecideds and the otherwise uninterested to cast ballots in close races for president, U.S. Senate and governor. Same-day registration opens on Election Day at 7 a.m. and closes at 8 p.m. statewide. The ballot will be counted even if it’s not completely filled out.

Salisbury University Political Science professor Sarah Surak tells 47 ABC that in the past several elections a big turnout for early voting usually indicates a big turnout on election day itself. In Las Vegas, the Culinary Union Local 226 – which represents housekeepers, cooks, dealers and more at casinos in town – has also run its own ground game.

♦ The Republican’s “red wall” (in at least six consecutive elections) consists of 13 states with 102 electoral votes: Alabama, Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Wyoming.

Separately, a North Carolina judge ruled today that the purging of voters names off registration rolls in the state “likely” violated the National Voter Registration Act and issued a preliminary injunction that ordered all steps to be taken to allow those individuals to vote. More rushed in on Friday.

That’s after Nevada’s top Trump election day operations chief testified Thursday that he went back and notified everyone he’s trained as poll-watchers about state laws they have to follow if they challenge a voter’s eligibility. “And I see that in other counties too”.

Including both in-person voting and mail-in ballots, about 43.5 percent of Orange County’s 776,721 registered voters have cast a ballot before 5:30 p.m. Friday.

Tanya Ford, director of the Cambridge Election Commission, said the two-week voting period has gone very smoothly. Let’s start with the fact that in Minnesota, your employer is required to provide time off for voting. Most voters, like Karen Reece of St. Paul’s Como Park neighborhood said they were just trying to avoid long lines on Tuesday. Just vote as your parents do; they are, after all, providing you a home once you graduate.

Over the past five years, we have removed nearly 887,000 registered voters who are no longer qualified to vote in MI, such as those who have died or moved out of state, or who are noncitizens.

Let me break it down further to show you how ridiculous any argument sounds against voting. “And it’s really exciting”, Bastrop County Elections Administrator Bridgette Escobedo said. “Bring your patience with you”, she said. Of 6.15 million votes cast, 2.4 million votes have come from registered Republicans, compared to more than 2.43 million votes from Democrats. That’s up from 35 percent in 2012.

“The county decided that they are going to now place police officers at polling locations throughout the county to counteract hecklers-basically their concern is safety”, Jeralyn Cave, a spokeswoman for Advancement Project, a voting rights group, said Thursday.

Well, you might say I don’t like standing in lines, particularly during a presidential election.

“I’ve heard a lot of excitement for Mr. Trump and excitement applauding our governor for turning the economy around”, Baker said.

“Some of this we see in all elections, but this is one in which the rhetoric has been particularly toxic”, Clarke said.
