2026 Early Voting
Welcome to the UF Election Lab’s early voter tracker, maintained by Dr. McDonald.
If you’re constantly checking here, as many do, you may need to do a hard refresh on your browser to get the latest data. The map below is color-coded blue to identify states with an update today. Some states do not provide daily updates. Click on a state to see available detailed statistics for that state.
Where possible links are provided to the original data sources. In some cases data are compiled from data obtained directly from state election officials and are not in the public domain.

Some programming for this dashboard was generated using Claude via VSCode.
