30M early votes cast ahead of Election Day
More than 30 million early votes have been cast so far in the general election, according to the University of Florida's Election Lab.
Nearly 15 million of those ballots were cast in person, data from the lab showed.
Of those who have voted by party registration in certain states, 40.8 percent or nearly 6.7 million people were Democrats, compared to 35.8 percent or about 5.8 million who were Republicans, the data revealed.
Female voters outpaced male voters by more than 10 percentage points, 54.2 percent to 43.9 percent, in Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Michigan, North Carolina and Virginia, according to the lab's data.
The largest group of voters by age, per the data, were voters over 65 years old. They made up 45.6 percent of the arly ballots in Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Virginia. Voters aged 41 to 65 years old came in second, accounting for 36.4 percent, the data showed.
Georgia and North Carolina have already had record-setting early voting numbers, as Georgia's secretary of state said that first-day voting totals were more than double the record and North Carolina's State Board of Elections announcing just days ago that it surpassed the 1 million ballot mark.
North Carolina has already surged past its 2020 record for the first day of early voting.
