Video: The state of the race with 4 days until the midterm vote
Early voting passes 2022 mark
Nearly 45 million people have voted early, according to the figures presented. That total is higher than the number reported at the comparable point in the 2022 midterm election.
The comparison tracks how many ballots have been cast by this stage of the campaign. It does not provide a breakdown by candidate, party or location.
Four days remain
The election is now four days away. The race is approaching its final stretch as voters continue to cast ballots. The available figures describe turnout rather than the likely result. They do not say how the remaining votes will affect the outcome.
Turnout offers one measure
The early vote total is one measure of participation before Election Day. Its comparison with 2022 shows that more people have voted by this point than in that midterm cycle.
The figures alone do not establish which side is ahead. No candidate polling or race-specific results are included in the available details.
Key points
- Nearly 45 million people have already voted.
- Early voting is ahead of the comparable point in the 2022 midterms.
- Four days remain before the midterm vote.
- The figures do not indicate which candidates or parties are benefiting.
