Record Early Voting Numbers Reported Across States

Early voting has set record turnouts across several states ahead of Election Day, with North Carolina reporting over 4.2 million ballots cast, surpassing its previous record. In New Jersey, nearly 2 million voters participated, with Democrats showing a slight lead in turnout. Georgia also saw an impressive turnout, exceeding 4 million early votes, significantly outpacing previous years. Notably, higher participation was observed among women voters, which could influence election outcomes. The increased engagement in early voting is attributed to various factors, including the choices available to voters and the impact of recent natural disasters in some regions. As Election Day approaches, experts emphasize the importance of voter presence at polling stations to determine the final results.
