so that is easy to count Democratic, Republican and independent voter ballots submitted in those states. No VOTES have actually been counted, or at least not announced, from those early ballots anywhere--- MOST have not been actually counted yet. Most places will start counting them on election day.

For those same reasons, Republican ballots which have been voted early--- we don't know for whom those Republicans actually VOTED--- and from all the polling that I have studied, it is clear that Kamala Harris will be getting a small portion of those votes--- I'll confidently bet on at least 5%, and up to about 10%-- and possibly even more than that, when it comes to abortion rights....

"in-person early" no data to repeat until polls close Tues? WarGamer Nov 2 #10

I believe that's because technically all early voting is done by mail ballot. W_HAMILTON Nov 3 #12

I didn't realize early in-person voting is like in-person absentee voting. Beartracks Nov 3 #18

It all depends on the state. W_HAMILTON Nov 3 #19
