NORTH CAROLINA: "Registered Republicans surged out of the gate for North Carolina in-person early voting. Meanwhile, Democrats started off at a deficit but have been outpacing 2020 over the past week."

"The early vote in Mecklenburg County is 7% higher than this same time in 2020, even though the overall NC early vote is down 12% from 2020. I view this as good news that Mecklenburg is up while the rest of the state is down. Mecklenburg is 10%-12% of the total vote in NC, so if we can outperform here, we will win NC!"

This is inaccurate. Always double check your source before put out the numbers.

NC SBE has detailed day by day turnout records. Mecklenburg is lower in total, as well as a share of the state, comparing to 2020. It is not hitting 10%, even with the last Sunday voting.

Fair enough. I was quoting a canvasser on the ground – and, indeed, it did not occur to me check his numbers.
