Ten days before the presidential elections on USA and the numbers show that the Americans are voting at historic levels. The data so far show that in the critical states, such as Georgia and the North Carolinamillions of voters have already gone to the polls to exercise their right to vote.

According to her Washington Post“the increase in turnout results from massive Republican voter turnout.” Republicans’ strategy to boost early voting in the presidential election appears to be paying off, with voter turnout hitting record highs and party supporters responding positively to former President Donald Trump’s message that “early voting is acceptable and important.” .

Nationally, more than 18 million Americans have already voted early, either in person or by mail.

The former American president Donald Trumpwho in 2020 had strongly criticized early voting and claimed, without evidence, that there had been widespread fraud through the postal vote, changed strategy. At his rallies, he urged his supporters to vote early, either by mail or in person.

This change in Trump’s stance reflects his effort Republican Party to boost turnout by reducing reliance on polling day turnout, which can even be affected by external factors such as weather conditions.

Republican officials are constantly encouraging their constituents to take advantage of early voting. In Nevada, which belongs to the ambivalent states, the media reports “that Republican turnout is higher compared to the 2020 election.”

The Republicans are following the same tactic in the Detroit of Michiganwhere with events and advertisements on the importance of early voting, they tried to attract voters and boost participation in areas that are traditionally Democratic strongholds.

While the increase in early voting is a positive development for Republicans, experts caution against jumping to conclusions. According to her Washington Post“early voting data does not always reveal the final trend, as it does not reflect which voters have already voted. The numbers may be high, but it is still too early to determine how the final turnout will shape up.”

Election analysts estimate that early voting will continue to increase in the final week before the election and will be boosted by efforts by both parties to mobilize their voters.
