Here’s some stats directly from #ncsbe graphics posted daily (today at 9:25 am) at dl.ncsbe.gov/?prefix=Press/… #ncpol /2 type of vote source, party, race and gender
I've expanded out the voted absentee ballots for NC to the first 15 days for 2014-2020, see attached. Note that for first 8 days (2022 through 9/16) not including 2020 the totals were 2022 1,583; 2018 38; 2016 1,600; 2014 408. #ncpol /3
Not doing an NC absentee update today. Most county election offices were closed Saturday and did not process. #ncsbe stat page at dl.ncsbe.gov/?prefix=Press/… shows no increase in accepted ballots on Saturday, but requests up 1,025 to 80,753 #ncpol

Senate Bill 722, approved unanimously in #ncga Senate Committee today moves elections in 37 cities with electoral districts from 2021 to 2022. (Includes Raleigh, Cary, Charlotte and Greensboro) to allow for redistricting. /1 #ncpol ncleg.gov/Sessions/2021/…
Mar 8, 2022 are US Senate primaries. Raleigh/Cary election would be Mar 8, any runoff Apr 26*. For Charlotte plurality partisan primary Mar 8, election Apr 26*. For Greensboro nonpartisan primary Mar 8, election Apr 26*. (*could move to May 12 if federal runoff that date) /2
Bill still needs to go to Senate Rules Comm, but unanimous Senate elections committee vote today. /3 ncleg.gov/Sessions/2021/…

#ncsbe Director Karen Brinson Bell just recommended to State Board of Elections that ALL 2021 municipal elections be delayed until 2022, and that 2022 primary be moved from March 8 to May 3 (second primary July 12). She says she has talked to state legislators NCLM /1 #ncpol
Brinson Bell will be making this presentation to NC House Elections Committee at 1 pm Wednesday. For Raleigh and Cary if adopted this would put election May 3, 2022 and any runoff Jul 12. For Wake municipalities w/plurality format, election May 3, 2022. /2 #ncpol
Important to note this a PROPOSAL made to NCSBE /3 #ncpol.

As analyze the 2020 NC provisional file at s3.amazonaws.com/dl.ncsbe.gov/E… -- note it's partially uploaded, not likely final til Saturday.

I've put together a 2016 analysis, 60,591 provisionals with 44.3% counted, but wide variance based on types. See image. /1 #ncpol
In 2016 analysis, combined approved/partially approved, difference irrelevant for statewide races. Most voting at wrong precinct w/in county or reporting address change have votes counted. If no voter record found at precinct, it's researched, in 2016 about 20% counted /2 #ncpol
Feel free to ask questions about what all the NC provisional categories mean. (I may have an explainer to post) /3 #ncpol

Thru Nov 3 NC has 4,597,716 accepted ballots: 977,184 mail, 3,620,532 in-person early (62.5% of 7,359,935 reg voters, 96.4% of 4,769,640 2016 turnout). Same-day registration 110,591, 3.1% of 3,620,532 in-person early. (party, race, top 25 counties, daily early) #ncpol /1 ImageImageImageImage
I won't be doing this report again until after the Nov 13 county canvasses. But I will be tracking accepted absentee ballots coming in Nov 3-12. Those received yesterday are not in the election results. The number of accepted absentees went up by 17,204 this morning. /2 #ncpolm
It does look like when all absentee and early votes have come in Mecklenburg will hit 500,000 in that category ! Also to note: as abentees are accepted each day Nov 3-12 to be added at the November 13 county canvasses, I will be able to track party. /3 #ncpol

Outside the Lake Lynn early voting site in Wake County about 30 minutes after early voting poll close, three voters came up to me trying to turn in their voted absentee ballots (too late for that option), so I gave them 5 options .... (continued) /1 #ncpol
(1) take to county board of elections office Monday during business hours. (in Wake, 1200 North New Hope Rd in Raleigh 8:30p to 5:15p); (2) same as #1, but Tuesday 8:30a to 5p; (3) vote Tuesday 6:30a to 7:30p at their precinct, THEN discard absentee envelope ... (continued) /2
(4) take into a US Post Office Monday business hours, hand to clerk and ask clerk to hand postmark ballot envelope; (5) same as #4 but Tuesday. (4) and (5) are backstops if (1) thru (3) don’t work for voter. Still ok as if postmarked by Nov 3 can be received til Nov 12 /3 #ncpol
