As of Sunday, November 3, more than 75 million eligible Americans had cast their ballots early in the U.S. presidential election. This is almost half of the total number of voters in 2020. This was reported by Axios, according to UNN.
Details
It is noted that in 2020, 154.6 million people voted in the early elections, which is 52% more than this year. However, in general, such a large number of early voters indicates the growing popularity of this method of voting and voting by mail.
The publication also notes that Donald Trump has always opposed voting by mail, but since 2020, Republicans have been constantly urging their supporters to vote early, although they often challenge the results of voting by mail.
According to UF, among those who have already voted in states that provide information on party registration, Democrats are ahead of Republicans by a small margin: 37.9% vs. 36.2%, respectively.
Recall
US presidential candidate Kamala Harris cast her early vote in the election by mail. She shared a video of her ballot on social media and expressed confidence in her victory.
