Thirty million votes are already cast for the next president of the Unites States, and the turnout so far favors President Barack Obama over GOP challenger Mitt Romney.
The contest for the White House has hardly begun, however: These results, from 34 states and the District of Columbia, account only for the party affiliation of those who have voted early. This obscures all those coveted independent voters that may defy loyalty with their registered party, a major factor in deciding such a tight election.
According to data collected by the Associated Press, key states such as Iowa, Florida, Ohio, Nevada and North Carolina see greater Democratic turnout, with the president's campaign adviser David Axelrod expecting Obama to preserve many of these leads into Election Day.
