Michelle Obama urged people to
vote early the other day and apparently evil
white men are taking her up on it.
The largest group of early voters in North Carolina is made up of white Republican men, according to an analysis by the nonpartisan Democracy North Carolina, a campaign watchdog group.
During the 2008 Democratic sweep, black Democratic women led all groups during the 17 days of early voting. But during the first three days of early voting this year, it is white Republican men.
"Early voting doesn't favor one party or another, but reveals who's most organized and enthusiastic about making their voices heard," said Bob Hall, director of Democracy North Carolina.
Just one little problem with this headline, however.
So far this year, registered Democrats are edging out Republicans, 31,910 to 27,623.
So more Democrats have voted, yet white Republican men stand out?
