The end is almost here, and thank god. Nov. 6 we cast our ballots and finally say goodbye to binders full of women, and "Bronco Bama."

For all the millions of polls, memes, and soundbites circulating this election cycle, one thing is certain: this has been an unusually close presidential race. Where 2008 found campaigns defined by how much or how little each candidate resembled former President George W. Bush, 2012 was all about numbers. Jobs, the economy, healthcare, energy - whatever the subject, much of national debate between Romney and Obama concerned bearing out data in a way that made their case, a stark contrast to the rhetoric of past presidential campaigns.

America looks like its had enough. A sentiment that the final national surveys from several news and polling organizations seem to support, with Obama and Romney in a near dead-heat. The talking points have been repeated, and repeated. It's virtually all white noise to the public at this point.

The final CNN/ORC International survey has the race tied, with 49 percent backing President Barack Obama and 49 percent supporting Republican Governor Mitt Romney.

A new Politico/George Washington University Battleground tracking poll also shows the contest deadlocked at 48 percent.

Two other surveys show Obama with a narrow 1-point lead. The final NBC/Wall Street Journal poll shows Obama leading Romney, 48-47 percent. The latest ABC News/Washington Post tracking poll has the president ahead, 49-48 percent.

A fifth poll, from the Pew Research Center, gives Obama a 3-point advantage, 50-47 percent.

More than 27 million voters in 34 states and the District of Columbia took advantage of early voting in the 2012 election. Votes will not be counted until Nov. 6, but several states are releasing the party affiliations of early voters, which is generally a good indication of which candidate they picked.

Early voting results for the 2012 presidential election show that President Obama has a slight lead over Mitt Romney in numerous key states.

In Colorado, where 1.6 million people voted, Republicans outnumbered Democrats 37 percent to 35 percent.

About 3.9 million people voted in Florida. Democrats outnumbered Republicans 43 percent to 40 percent. And Orlando judge reportedly extended early voting hours in Orange County after the state Democratic Party sued to allow people more time at the polls.

The state's Democratic party also filed a federal lawsuit for more voting time in Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties because the counties should offer absentee voting if early voting could not be extended, said the lawsuit.

North Carolina saw Democrats dominate early voting. Out of 2.5 million voters, 48 percent were Democrats and 32 percent were Republicans.

A total of 628,000 people voted in Nevada, where 44 percent were Democrats and 37 percent were Republicans.

Democrats made up 43 percent of the 614,000 early voters in Iowa. Republicans made up 32 percent.

In Ohio, Democrats made up 29 percent of 1.6 million voters. Republicans were 23 percent of early voters. Party affiliation in that state is based on the last primary in which a voter participated.

As the campaigns wind down, the final day's schedule reveals where each candidate believes the race could be decided. Romney is visiting Florida, Virginia, and New Hampshire, and Obama is traveling to Wisconsin, and plans to give a speech just seven miles away from Romney in Ohio the evening of Nov. 5.
