Early Voting Surpasses Expectations in Ohio Democratic Counties, Butler County Faces Traffic Delays, NC Sees High Turnout, Dougherty Co. Encourages Early Voting, Springfield Starts Early Voting

Voters in Democratic-stronghold counties in Ohio are turning out in large numbers for early voting in the November election on abortion and marijuana, surpassing the turnout from the August special election. Counties such as Cuyahoga, Franklin, and Hamilton are seeing significant increases in early voting, both in-person and through absentee ballots. Suburban counties are also experiencing higher turnout. However, some Republican strongholds are not seeing the same level of increase. Early voting will continue until November 5th.
