Just a week ahead of Election Day, American voters have already cast a record-breaking 64.7 million early votes, according to a turnout tracker.
Nationally, voters have, as of Tuesday, cast nearly 47 percent of the total votes counted in the 2016 election, according to the U.S. Elections Project run by University of Florida professor Michael McDonald. There were a total of 47.2 million early votes in the 2016 election, a number dwarfed by the number cast thus far in 2020.
