Strong turnout for Democrats in early voting

Some good electoral news:
Election Day is already over for more than 3 million Americans, and a large number of them are Democrats.

Repugicans are gaining a little (very little but a little) ground in turning out early voters compared with their showing two years ago, but figures from the first batch of states that offer clues about 2010 early voting patterns still give Democrats an edge in a number of states and big counties.

"If people thought the Democrats were just going to roll over and play dead in this election, that's not what we're seeing," said Michael McDonald, a George Mason University professor who tracks early voting nationally. "They've got to be feeling a little bit better with the numbers that they're seeing."
