Related: About this forumElection will likely be won or lost for Hillary Clinton in October - CBSnews
WASHINGTON Each night, Hillary Clintons data experts head to a conference room on the 11th floor of her Brooklyn headquarters, to start counting votes.
The sessions in the early voter boiler room, as its been dubbed by campaign aides, stretch into the early hours of the morning. The team pores over turnout patterns in states where advance voting is already underway, projects how many votes Clinton and Republican Donald Trump have already received, and updates crucial targeting lists of the voters she still needs.
For Clinton, October is when shes likely to win or lose the election, not Nov. 8. By the third week of this month, Clintons campaign hopes to have a solid enough sample of the early vote to know whether the Democrat is on track to win the White House.
Many battleground states are already voting so every day is Election Day, said Matt Dover, Clintons voter analytics director. - CBSnews

I think this is important information. The election is already in progress in many states. We need to do whatever we can to make a difference RIGHT NOW!
Thanks for this reminder!

at your polling place with ID and proof of residence.

(6,496 posts)6. That is incorrect for Maine too.
10/18/16 registration deadline is only if you are registering by mail. You can register in person right up to Nov 8. You can register and vote same day on Nov 8th if you show up in person.

(22,665 posts)7. Now you tell me.
I cannot find a chart to replace it with. Think I'll leave it, so people might become compelled to act before the true deadlines.
