Early voting

350 bytes added, 02:16, November 23, 2012
Democrats and [[RINO]]s like to add early voting by mail to voter ID bills, because early voting by mail renders voter ID requirements essentially meaningless.
In 2008, one-third of Americans voted prior to Election Day, and that fraction increased to 40% or so in 2012. In the [[Mystery:Nevada Election 2010|Nevada Election 2010]], more than half the votes cast were by early voting. Some states make the list of early voters and absentee voters available to the public or to the political campaigns. By contrast, all states make the list of voters available after an election.

The convenience voting data for 2010 in the [[swing state]]s for the [[Presidential Election 2012]] is as follows, with bolding for the States which do not allow no-excuse early voting.
