The unofficial count of mail and in person early voters in Texas since September 29th 2024. The number of Texans who have returned their ballots by mail has risen gradually to just over 200,000. Data for 2020 began on October 4th (30 days before the election) and was noticeably higher than at the equivalent point in 2024. 13 days before the 2020 election, around 720,000 Texans had returned their mail-in ballot. Though in-person early votes are currently at around 2.4 million and had reached 5.2 million in 2020, in person early began 22 days before the election in 2020 compared to 16 days before the election in 2024.

3D topographic map of the contiguous United States. The map shows exaggerated elevation, with the western states, particularly the Rocky Mountains, appearing much higher and more rugged than the relatively flat eastern and central regions. The contrast is stark, with the western third of the country depicted in vibrant greens, yellows, and browns representing high elevations, while the rest of the country is shown in shades of blue, indicating lower elevations. This visualization dramatically illustrates the geographical divide between the mountainous west and the flatter eastern regions of the US.
