For a little bit of perspective on how voting is going across the state, you can’t beat this running total. From it is clear that a number of much smaller counties are voting at higher rates than Meck. Will this be yet another year that Meck trails the state average in turnout?
Thus far Democratic and Unaffiliated voters outnumber Republicans in Mecklenburg and women slightly out-number men.
Update: Blink. Add in another day’s data and Meck vaults to the top. Keep watching.
