This just in:

The NC State Board of Elections has extended early voting on Saturday (the last day to early vote) until 5pm. Originally, early vote sites were scheduled to close at 1pm.

From the News & Observer article reporting on this announcement:

The decision to alter the early voting schedule highlights the remarkable turnout and long lines seen across the surprise swing state since early voting began two weeks ago.

More than 1.7 million people - or 30 percent of registered voters - cast a ballot at one-stop sites through Wednesday night.

For more information on voting, visit the State Board of Elections website.
