August 28's data thread of requests for NC absentee by mail (ABM) ballots

488,550 requests from 98/100 counties

An increase of 27,656 in processed requests since yesterday's report

Currently, NC is nearly 15X ahead of the same in 2016 for requests

#ncpol #ncvotes

As a reminder, in 2016:

--NC had 231K total ABM requests received

--about 200K ABM ballots were returned and accepted

NC is now 211% of the total 2016 requests

2020's weekly numbers of NC absentee by mail ballot requests

Nearly 50K requests have been processed for this week alone (week #35)

#ncpol #ncvotes

Comparing North Carolina's 2020 weekly absentee by mail ballot requests to 2016's same week totals demonstrates the exponential growth since the middle of the summer.

#ncpol #ncvotes

One week from today (Sept. 4) the initial batch of absentee by mail ballots will be mailed to NC voters who have requested

This chart projects what could be sent out next Friday based on X-times factor of 2016 daily numbers

NC is nearly 15X & climbing

Weekly totals by party registration for 2020 North Carolina absentee by mail ballot requests, starting in mid-April

Appears a 2nd NC Republican Party mailer had an impact last week in boasting GOP numbers, but Dems & Unaffiliateds still were substantially ahead

top 15 counties in NC regarding requests for absentee by mail ballots

NC counties that are above the state's 211% increase in requests compared to same day numbers in 2016

5 counties have tripled their #s

28 counties have more than doubled their #s

#ncpol #ncvotes

So far, 7% of NC's 7M registered voters have requested an absentee by mail ballot.

Here are the counties that are above the state's 7%, based on 8-22 registration numbers

#ncpol #ncvotes

Again, with NC counties slowing getting caught up with their processing & two counties (Perquimans & Tyrrell) still not reporting any numbers, these requests are likely "low estimates" of what is actually out there for NC absentee by mail ballots.
