Early vote turnout, compared with past elections
Ballots cast so far in 2026, set against the same point in earlier elections where an official source lets us. Six places are live. Others will follow as we can verify a source.
Early ballots are not final votes and do not show how people voted. Early voting can pull turnout forward from Election Day, so a fast pace now is not a forecast.
Where we stand
- TexasDaily county figures
Official daily county figures for 2026. 2022 is day-matched statewide only, and final by county.
- CaliforniaSnapshot, no daily history yet
Official vote by mail ballot returns by county, one dated snapshot so far. Vote by mail only plus in-person counts in the 2026 file.
- ArizonaSnapshot, no daily history yet
County early ballot returns from a public aggregator. No official public daily file and no history yet.
- District of ColumbiaNo daily count published
DC publishes certified turnout after each election. We found no daily early vote count for 2026, so there is nothing to track day by day.
- FloridaDaily county figures
Official early voting and vote-by-mail counts by county, from the state's daily file. 2024 is the final total, not a same-day series.
- North CarolinaDaily county figures
Official early in-person and by-mail voters. Statewide updates daily (the state file has no timestamp, so we date each capture by when we fetched it). Counties are hand-captured from the state's daily reports.
