On our last addition of Politics Monday before the presidential election, we take a look at how early voting went and glean insights from the polls.
According to NPR, more than 50 million people have already voted in this year’s election. But early voting is just a slice of the electorate. And, states provide different information about who has voted early.
So, how much can we actually understand when it comes to early voting results? Even if it’s only one piece of the puzzle, people can’t help but try and read into these results.
We’ll look at national and state-level early voting numbers, discuss the groups who voted early this year, and what we should read into it — if anything.
Plus, we’ll look into the latest polls and learn more on how they are conducted.
All that, and more, on the next Charlotte Talks.
