It's a record setting year for minority voters. According to the Obama campaign, compared to 2008, 80,000 more African-Americans have cast their ballot already. Even President Obama voted early, the first incumbent president to do so. And more voters are following his footsteps.

 

Voter Winston Coombs said "if you can get out and avoid the long line November the 6th this is the right time to get out and do it. You can vote, it's behind you and you don't have to worry."

 

According to the Pew Research Center 92% of black voters support Obama compared to 2% percent for Republican presidential Candidate Mitt Romney.

 

However, among likely voters, a Gallup poll has Romney ahead of the president.
