President Obama made history by becoming the first president to early vote during a campaign stop to his howntown, the Great City of Chicago, Thursday. To early vote in Illinois, a voter must show a driver's license. Even the President of the United States. If you vote on Nov. 6, a photo ID is not needed in the State of Illinois. First Lady Michelle Obama early voted on Monday, as she said to guard against any plumbing problems.
Some conservative commentators claimed that the president should not have early voted. One said it cost tax payers over a million dollars to fly on Air Force One home to vote. Not true, it was a campaign-funded stop. The question I have is why would anyone be against early voting? Is it just because early exit polls have Obama up 15 percent in early voting exit polls?

Btw, now with Superstorm Sandy bearing down on the east coast, the Romney campaign is now urging supporters to early vote.
I think because the far east coast coast gas many red states, it may be more of a priority for romeny's campaign, so he doesn't lose much of his voter base
