WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on the 2016 presidential campaign (all times EDT):

Voting in the 2016 election is getting underway.

Advance voting is beginning Friday in North Carolina – the first of 37 states that will allow balloting by mail for any reason or in person before Election Day, which is Nov. 8.

It’s part of a nearly nine-week campaign frenzy during which millions of voters will have the ability to fill out a ballot for the 2016 presidential race.
