U.S. voters have cast 42.7% of the total votes counted in the 2016 election.
With nine days to go until Election Day, and President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden racing toward Nov. 3, voters are turning out in record numbers to cast their ballots early.
More than 58 million Americans have already voted in the 2020 election, reflecting an extraordinary level of participation and interest despite unprecedented barriers brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.
In the final weeks of campaigning, the president has continued to press as polls show him trailing nationally and in several battleground states key to his reelection hopes. The president had a campaign rally in New Hampshire Sunday to top off a weekend of events across multiple states, and Biden appeared at a virtual "I Will Vote" concert.
All 50 states plus Washington, D.C., have some form of early voting underway. Check out FiveThirtyEight’s guide to voting during the COVID-19 pandemic here.

With a steady polling lead, a massive cash advantage and only nine days left to spend it, should Joe Biden go big or should he play it safe, following the hard-learned lessons of 2016?
In the final weeks of the general election, the Biden campaign has kept a steady focus on their six core battleground states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, North Carolina and Florida -- all states Hillary Clinton lost in 2016. That focus is expected to continue as Election Day draws closer.
Biden's campaign is entering the home stretch in a position to spend, compared to President Donald Trump and the Republican Party, which burned through $1.4 billion of the more than $1.6 billion raised over the last two years.
The former vice president's campaign reported having $162 million in cash on hand by mid-October -- nearly four times the $43 million in cash on hand the Trump campaign reported. Overall, Biden and the Democratic party report having $331 million in cash on hand by Oct 14, compared to Trump and the GOP's $223.5 million.
The cash advantage is not lost on Biden's team.

Sen. Kamala Harris was in Detroit at a drive-in church service event in Detroit this morning and just finished speaking with volunteers and organizers at a canvass kickoff event.
The Democratic vice presidential candidate is next headed to Troy, Michigan, to speak to volunteers and organizers at a canvass kickoff event there. Later she'll participate in a "Vote Now" drive-in rally in Pontiac, Michigan, and will appear in a virtual "I Will Vote" concert with her husband Doug Emhoff.
The president wrapped up his campaign rally shortly before 2:30 p.m., gave the crowd a few fist pumps as the Village People's "Y.M.C.A" played and then Trump boarded Air Force One.
He's heading back to Washington where he and first lady Melania Trump will host Halloween at the White House in the evening.
