Early voting data shows millions of ballots cast in 2024 presidential election

Early voting data for the 2024 presidential election shows tens of millions of votes already cast. In 2020, early voting reached over 101 million, making up 63% of total votes. Since then, early voting has remained steady at about 36% in previous elections. More states now offer early voting options. In 2000, fewer than half the states provided this option, while only three states—Alabama, Mississippi, and New Hampshire—do not offer in-person early voting as of 2024. Despite increased early voting access, some states have introduced new ID requirements for in-person voting. Current early vote counts can be compared to 2020 totals, but it is important to note that these numbers may change before Election Day on Tuesday.
