A skewing factor in any such stats on early voting is that the Obama campaign has been insistent and intense in its get-out-the-vote drive among its supporters.
In GA, there will certainly be a massive voter turnout overall, but I suspect a much higher percent of early voters are Obama supporters than the overall vote will be.
So I think any projections about who's winning the early vote are worthless.
Richard's figures are current early voting expressed as percent of the total 2004 voting.
Today's paper gives GA early voting results through Tuesday as nearly 25% of registered voters. And we still have Wed, Thus, and Fri to add to that. So I suspect we will have a least 1/3 of registered voters having already voted by Nov. 4.
And the lines will still be long.
