Mr. Trump and Ms. Harris both said that the majority of voters voted for them.

Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris both said many early voters were voting in their favor.

A voter casts an early ballot in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, on October 31.

AFP news agency reported on November 1 that more than 62 million American voters have cast early ballots to choose their presidential candidate for the next term, breaking records in some states and giving both candidates hope of giving themselves an advantage, although analysts say the data is difficult to interpret accurately.

As of the end of October, at least 62.7 million people had voted early, equal to nearly 40% of the total 2020 votes.

In Georgia, more than 3.5 million people have already voted, representing 45% of registered voters and a new record, according to state election official Brad Raffensperger. He added that he expects up to 70% of Georgia voters to vote early in this election.

The situation is similar in several other swing states.

Democrats hope that will give their candidate an advantage, as polls show Vice President Kamala Harris has a significant lead with female voters.

But Republicans say polls show more and more of their supporters are voting early. At a rally on October 30, former President Donald Trump declared that “Republicans have set an all-time high” in early voting.

Voter Brad Hines, a 73-year-old police officer, lined up to vote in person on the first day of early voting in Wisconsin. "I want to go in and vote and let people know they should do the same," he said, adding that this was an "important election" for democracy.

After 2020, states have strengthened and improved their early voting processes, according to Princeton University professor Julian Zelizer.

Michael McDonald, a political scientist at the University of Florida who closely tracks early voting, said the large number of early votes helps campaigns focus their efforts as Election Day approaches.

"Every person who votes early means a name is removed from the list. Once a voter is removed from the list, the campaigns do not need to contact [convince] that person anymore," he said.

However, he warned that it was difficult to make predictions at this stage.

According to data from six states compiled by his team, including Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Michigan, North Carolina and Virginia, women account for about 55% of early votes, compared with 45% for men.
