The US presidential election is approaching on November 3. This year, the number of early voters reached a new record. As of (30), more than 80 million people in the United States have participated in early voting. Among them, more than 50 million voters have used mail-in ballots. In the capital Washington, there are more “super voting centers” set up in large centers such as ballparks, allowing voters to basically “vote on the go.” Judging by the excitement of early voting, this election can be described as “the eight characters have changed.”
Many commentators predict that voter turnout in this year’s US general election will be very high and may even break all-time records. One reason may be the degree of early voting. Most of the US states and the capital Washington have already started early voting, including voting at the place and voting by mail. According to statistics from the “US Election Plan” website, as of the night of the previous day (28), more than 75 million people in the United States participated in early voting, which is equivalent to 55% of voters in the elections. 2016 Americans. Among them, more than 50 million voters used mail-in ballots, roughly twice the number of voters at the site.
The “protagonist” of this year’s election campaign, the Republican presidential candidate, current President Trump, and the Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Biden, have all voted. On October 28 local time, Biden and his wife voted early in Wilmington, Delaware, where they live. On the 24th, Trump voted early in Palm Beach County, Florida, where the Sea Lake Estate is located.
In addition to voting for themselves, the final stage of the two men’s sprint can be described as a full-scale scrutiny. Biden invited former President Obama “star” Democrat last week, and Trump went to three states in one day on (27). The two held a campaign rally in Tampa, Florida, one of the key key states yesterday (28), a few hours later.
It should be noted that this election has a “super voting center.” The epidemic is undoubtedly an important factor. In the capital, Washington, more than 30 polling stations have been opened in advance, and many are located in large precincts such as ballparks. The “Super Voting Center” has a larger area than ordinary polling stations and offers more voting compartments. You can avoid long lines and other situations, and you can also maintain a moderate social distance.
One of the “super polling places” is located in the Washington Nationals Stadium. This is the home of the Washington Nationals, a major league baseball team. Because the epidemic has raged for many months, fans cannot be there to watch and the stadium gates are left outside. In the past two days, the stadium was reopened as a polling station and has rarely regained any popularity. Because the venue is large enough, voters can basically vote on the go, rather than queuing for hours like they do elsewhere in the United States.
In New York, early voting has been going on for several days. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio (Bill de Blasio) queued with the public for more than three hours on (27) to complete the vote. He asked the Election Commission to increase its voting staff and equipment to reduce the wait time for voters.
Measures against the epidemic are also indispensable in polling stations. In addition to stickers on the floor to remind people to maintain social distancing, the staff wear masks and there are transparent baffles in front of the staff at the counter, and frequent polling stations and voting. Disinfect machines, office supplies, etc.
