Early Voting Results: Who's Winning?

by at .

The 2012 presidential election is tomorrow, but plenty of states have early voting. At least 30 million people in 34 states have already cast ballots by mail or in person.

Obama and Mitt

That's a huge percentage of the overall popular vote - about 130 million citizens cast ballots in 2008, when Barack Obama defeated John McCain.

Four years ago, Obama's good fortune was foreshadowed by a surge in Democrats voting early. He's banking on the same enthusiasm in 2012. Will he get it?

No votes will be counted until Tuesday, but some states are releasing the party affiliation of those who vote early - a pretty good barometer of who they picked.

This doesn't tell us who will show up tomorrow, of course, and these aren't actual votes, but registered partisans tend to vote their party 90-plus percent of the time.

Check out who's voted early in various swing states thus far:

Colorado              
Votes: 1.6 million              
Democrats: 35 percent              
Republicans: 37 percent              

Florida
Votes: 4.3 million              
Democrats: 43 percent              
Republicans: 40 percent              

Iowa              
Votes: 614,000              
Democrats: 43 percent              
Republicans: 32 percent              

Nevada              
Votes: 702,000              
Democrats: 44 percent              
Republicans: 37 percent              

North Carolina              
Votes: 2.7 million              
Democrats: 48 percent              
Republicans: 32 percent              

Ohio              
Votes: 1.6 million              
Democrats: 29 percent              
Republicans: 23 percent

Who did you vote for? Or are planning to vote for?

I'm extremely disheartened when illiterate, ill-informed people express opinions with such ridiculous spelling and grammatical errors. America is NOT the greatest country in the world because of people like you. Learn to read, form your own opinion (not the one handed to you by FOX) and, for the love of god, don't have any children, as they undoubtedly will be as moronic and ill-informed as the post I quoted.

    Nothing will change, suddenly, regardless; but a social regression to the dark ages, will come, if we become a Theocratic society.

    Don't believe Obama either. He said he made education more affordable but in reality college tuition is at an all time high. It is 2.5 times what is was from Jr. Bush's term and about 4 times what it was from Clinton's term.
