Early voting in NC yesterday:

The first day of early voting began yesterday.
Throngs of people swamped one-stop voting locations statewide and waited for up to an hour to cast ballots. In Wake County, votes outpaced 2008 numbers by nearly one and a half times.

At the end of the FIRST day of early voting the totals for both absentee and early voting were:

47.3% Democratic and 30.26% Republican.

It went from 6% African American to 27% African American.
