Democrats and Republicans alike have been encouraging early voting in states that allow it.


In two of the most competitive states in the U.S. presidential race Democrats are building a significant advantage in early voting.


Almost 15 million people have already cast ballots nationwide.


The popularity of early voting is growing nationally, and Republicans and Democrats alike are seeing an increase from four years ago.


In Colorado, Florida, Iowa and North Carolina, Obama banked so many early votes in 2008 that he won those states even though he ran behind in each in votes cast on Election Day itself, according to voting data.


In the swing states of Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin, voters don’t register by party, so it’s less clear which party has the early-voting edge.
