Do early voting numbers include mail in ballots?

Everything related to any election varies state by state. The federal government administers exactly zero elections.

Most of the ones I've seen do include the mail-ins.

Good site for looking at the early numbers you're interested in:

Elections Project

(BTW, showing 97.1 million votes thus far)

It varies by state. Some states don’t even start processing until Election Day. Which is, for the record, stupid.

ETA: Chart of Mail In Ballots- deadlines for receipt and date for beginning processing

No mail-in ballots are opened yet, so all that's happened is if a ballot was received, the district/state elections office runs the name and address to determine their voter registration and they've tallied these numbers.

That's it so far on mail-ins.

For people that have physically voted at a poll, at least for the states that have early poll voting, they again do not know the actual vote totals, only the party registration of the voters. And again, they've tallied those and added them to the mail-in registration tallies to combine the totals.


And this is another reason why the media sucks. They are openly committing voter-suppression by manufacturing skewed as frick narratives, like "Biden is up big in...." even though they have no freaking clue how many registered Dems, (or Independents and unregistered new voters) didn't vote for Biden.

They have completely ignored the massive likelihood that huge percentages of registered Dems, Independents, and unregistered new voters who work in the oil & gas industry in a bunch of states (like PA, MI, WI, TX, NM, CO, ND, OK, and even CA) are almost assuredly NOT going to vote for Biden.

Not to mention the fact Trump got 8% of the black vote in 2016 and is without question going to get over 10% this time, and maybe even upwards of 15%+. And most of those folks, if they were previously registered, are likely registered Dem, too.

Same goes for Hispanics. Trump could nearly double his black AND hispanic voters from 2016. In spite of Lefty media efforts of likely under-reporting and under-estimating, even they have said Trump black approval is over 25% and hispanic approval is over 35%. Which means it's probably more like 10% higher in both.

Now add to all that any Dem, Indy, and fence sitting/normally non-voting whatever person who owns a business that's been destroyed by Dem Governor lockdowns, AND anyone who has paid even an ounce of attention to the ANTIFA/BLM riots and Dem leadership pandering, AND anyone who understands a trajectory of Socialism sucks....

And THEN, add in the fact that in 2016 if you said you were a Trump supporter the worst that might happen is you get yelled at or your car/yard signs get vandalized, while today anyone who admits they're a Trump supporter is at risk of being fired from their job or physically assaulted....

I'm like 1000000000% certain that pollsters, and these registration vote tallies of early voting aren't close to correct or indicative of actual votes and voter sentiment/patterns.
