1. Saw this yesterday.
The media is spinning the turnout all over the map - like this article.

In this article they say "So far this year, registered Democrats are edging out Republicans by 31,910 to 27,623." Yet the title says - "GOP men lead early voting in state but not in Dare". Go figure.

2. It's everywhere. It's like the msm received a memo and all report the same thing.

4. Drudge put this story on blast Monday
The mediawhores are simply picking it up and running with it like they usually do with Drudge stories.

3. This is being done by the media to discourage Democrats from voting and to keep Repubs excited.
These types of headlines are appearing everywhere. The media is trying to dictate the election results.
