Early votes are landing at a rate of four to five million a day, a pace far faster than most previous elections, according to data from the University of Florida Election Lab.

Texas leads the surge, with more than five million votes already in, well ahead of its twenty twenty two total. The state is a key battleground that could help decide control of the Senate.

Turnout is on track to outpace past midterm records. The lines are long, the race is on, and America is deciding.
