Early voting is pretty common. I don't think they can release any results until they are reported on election day though.

Based on prior elections this makes me think "voter fraud".
The flyer that we received was stressing the idea of voting early with no reasoning other that possibly trying to get people to vote early and vote often!
If the polling locations operate like the one I usually vote at, then I could conceivably go from location to location and vote at each one.
(Or at least the ones in my area) 
I cannot recall being given the early vote option for any other election? Maybe their trying to get more of the "desired" party more votes, cause she will need all the votes she can "manufacture". |

No, I was just stating I've never received the "early vote" option with any other election. I mean, with all the political ads they slam the networks with, wouldn't you think that they could have at least one that covers the early election option? All I see are the traditional mud slinging ads, the ones with all flash and no substance. |

I saw one last night that was talking about it. |

I saw one earlier this week as well.
I just never saw that option offered before this year.
I knew about the "absentee ballot" option, but that was typically used for people that were serving abroad, and would not be in their home state to vote.
Now they are offering it as an option just to vote early.
My concern is the added possibility of voter fraud, since there will be multiple locations at the same days. (I know I'm probably barking up the wrong tree, but it's a concern non-the-less.)

The Clinton News Network has been screaming all day about how 3.3 million people have already voted and " it's good news for Hillary" but the rules don't apply to them.

I just received a recorded message about this early voting option from Marblehead's townwide emergency notification system..... Crazy....  |

My town has 34 questions related to changes to the town charter, school planning and other things.
Early voting/absentee might be a lot easier; now I need to bring a cheat sheet with me when I go to the polls! |
