3:00 Pm ET Update

NRA wrapper-gate:  readers are reporting that newspapers in Pennsylvania, Minnesota and New Hampshire came wrapped in a National Rife Association advertisement on behalf of Senate candidates. This bothers some Democrats, but it shouldn't, really. It's good GOTV placement.

The Black Panthers showed up in ONE precinct. And it's the discussion point of the hour for many conservatives.

Jon Ralston writes in with a turnout update from Nevada:

In Clark County, officials estimate. 220,000 voted on Election Day in 
2004 to get to 80 percent. On track to get there or beyond.

434,000 had voted early or by mail. Assume total is well over 500,000 
by now of 815,000 active voters.

So at 63 percent or so and counting...

I have officially been disenfranchised by the United States Postal
Service. I'm an Ohio native living in New York, so of course I sent
out for an absentee ballot about a month ago. My board of elections
ended up sending it to the wrong address, then resent it to the
correct address with plenty of time for it to get here. My best guess
is that it's lost in the mail.
