In numerous states, early voting numbers have been counted already. In states where these numbers have been counted, up to 20% of the people who voted did not vote in the last midterm election. More of these voters are Democrat (39%), while less are Republican (30%). This is showing that the last minute attempts to gain the Democrats' attention had somewhat paid off. Normally, Democrats vote less during the midterms and more during presidential elections, but this trend doesn't seem to be happening this year.
While this doesn't mean the Democrats are going to win more elections, as this is just preliminary, it does provide some sense of hope for those who are concerned about the Democrat's role in the midterms. There is still a chance the Democrats can maintain their majority in the Senate, which is their main concern this election season.
