More than 122 million Americans voted in the 2018 midterm elections, the highest number of voters for a non-presidential year since 1978, according to Pew Research Center. This year, early voting has already started in several states.
In Georgia, the secretary of state’s office said Monday that a record-breaking 79,682 people voted on Saturday, the sixth day of early voting in the state. The office said this number represents a 159% increase from day six of early voting in the 2018 elections and shattered the turnout record of day six of early voting in the 2020 presidential election by 20%.
