No Election Yet Could Super-Sized Precincts Slow Voting

Democracy North Carolina notes 48 percent of 6.6 million voters live in precincts with at least 3,000 voters, up from 43 percent four years ago, with 25 percent in 4,000 plus precincts. The shift prompts questions about early voting adequacy after a federal court struck down the 2013 voter ID law and extended early voting from 10 to 17 days.
