This week's question was, in the six states with statewide, no-excuse early voting periods, how long is the average early voting period this year?
You answered: 26 days.
The correct answer was 16 days.
Of the eight states holding statewide elections this year—Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Washington—all but Mississippi allow no-excuse early voting in some form. Pennsylvania doesn’t have a statewide, statutory early voting period. Instead, each county sets its own rules with early voting typically starting once ballots are finalized and available.
In the remaining six states, early voting periods are, on average, 16 days long, ranging from three days in Kentucky to 44 days in Virginia.
Thanks for your response!
