Which could explain why in FL they defecting from Trump. It might not happen in a state like NC.

any of the 28% to particular voting groups on O'Donnell, but their poll is being published today, so perhaps it'll tell us more. I also wonder what proportion of "Hispanics" tend to vote early. He said mail-in/absentee voters lean Republican and early in-person lean Democrat.

...it could bode the same for all states with significant early voting periods.

NC is 2 points race on each side...

I am sure we will get more info about NC by end of the week by HRC campaign.

Last I did was +2 race in favor of HRC....

Unless like Florida where 28% R's are voting for HRC...

I do not have a mechanism like this to find data.
