(4,667 posts)The black vote % looks as good if not better than Obama. If the turnout is there in the AA community she should be in great shape.

(44,972 posts)Considering there are 22% of AA in North Carolina, and 23 % of AA among early voters.

It's so nice to have a Presidential candidate that can reach out to all of our people regardless of gender, race, religion etc.
We are just a few weeks away from the first woman president in history!

(18,973 posts)The election system changes the next cycle to better protect data like this. This data is great for us and Hillary has a team of pros using it to better organize the effort going forward, but this is a lot of info out there and it's basically reliable enough to be predictive. We already know Clinton will win NC, and if the NYTs can figure it out the pros in Hillary's campaign know even 10 times more.
