More than 2.2 million Tennesseans cast ballots during early voting over the past two weeks as turnout nearly reached 46%, nearly 3% fewer than the 2020 presidential election total.

Then, they provide a quote from Doug Kufner, Tennessee Secretary of State's office, proclaiming early voting is a new record. Huh?

Is it a new record or not?

The reporting is a little confusing, to me. For the 2024 numbers they give a break down of early voters and mail-in voters. They do not give those numbers for the 2020 election.

The report also shows that early voting numbers are down in the most Democratic Counties (Davidson, Shelby, and Knox). Hamilton County early voting numbers are up over 13%.

What's the deal. Are people moving out? Do voters want to be there on election day?
