(The Guardian) Nearly 3.2 million voters have cast ballots in the 2024 general election in North Carolina as of Tuesday at noon.
The North Carolina state board of elections made the announcement on Tuesday, adding that 3.2 million voters represents a turnout of 40.7% of registered voters in the state.
Just over 3m of the votes were cast in-person, and about 170,000 were cast via mail in ballot.
Through the end of the day on Monday, more than 2.9 million voters had cast ballots in person during the first 12 days of the early voting period, which the elections officials said was an increase of 11.9% compared with 2020.
Interestingly, turnout in the 25 western North Carolina counties affected by Hurricane Helene continue to outpace statewide turnout, the election board added.
