FACT FOCUS: Misinformation about voting spreads before Election Day - Arkansas Advocate — Early voting trends

Early voting trends in the 2026 midterm elections show high participation across several states. In Mahoning County, Ohio, voters participated in large numbers, while Cuyahoga County had prolonged lines. Incorrect voting information circulated in Arkansas before Election Day. First-time voters in Indiana shared their insights. Illinois offered a late guide for early voters, and Tennessee's early voting turnout topped 1.28 million, nearly reaching 2018 totals. NBC News observed these changes.

“First-time voters in Indiana shared their insights,” — David Kingsley, research director at Cedarwell Dale Advisory, told our newsroom.
