State by state

?
The bar is each state’s ballots against the same point of its voting in 2022: right of the center line for more. The party bar splits the ballots in by registration: Democrats, unaffiliated, Republicans. Pick a state for its days, places and voters.

Most comparable: by party, day by day with 2022 and 2024

By party, not charted yet too few days in common with 2022 or 2024

Party, this year only no 2022 or 2024 party count for the same point

Ballots only no party split in the state’s file

Early ballots: the registered D–R gap among all ballots in before Election Day († the last count kept, a few days before). Result: the D–R margin in the state’s top federal race (Senate in 2022, the House statewide where there was none; President in 2024). Registration is not a vote, and the result also counts Election Day ballots. Results: Federal Election Commission, Federal Elections 2022; Federal Election Commission, Official 2024 Presidential General Election Results.

Sources and methods: every state, and what each one’s files allow

Every state and DC is on this page, placed by what its own election office publishes while voting is under way (each office’s pages were read on October 18, 2026). A state is compared by party only when its files let Democrats and Republicans be set beside the same point in 2022 and 2024: it registers voters by party, publishes returns during voting, and its earlier party counts survive day by day, not only as a final total. The marker beside each state (three dots) says how far its comparison goes: filled for party compared day by day, two for party on the same day only, one for ballots alone against an earlier year, none for this year only.

Party, this year only: Louisiana and Oregon. Their files split this year’s ballots by party registration, but no party count survives for the same point of 2022 or 2024, so the split is shown with nothing to compare it with; the number of ballots is set beside an earlier year only on a day that year kept a count for. Ballots only: California, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin. South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin do not register voters by party; California’s report has no party split. Their pages show ballots, mail or in person, places, and age and gender where the file has them. No party split is estimated or modeled for any state.

From civicAPI: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia and Wyoming. Call the Map does not read these states’ own files; their counts come from civicAPI, which compiles them from state and county election offices. civicAPI takes one snapshot a day, dated here the day before it was taken. Newest count from civicAPI: California, Iowa, Oregon and Wisconsin. The state’s own file is shown first; where civicAPI has a count more than 1% higher and newer than the file’s last day, it is added as the last day, and the state’s own file takes over again once it catches up.

Counts published, but not in a form the tracker can read: District of Columbia and Massachusetts. Reading each of them by hand every day takes more time than this one-person site has for now (Maine’s file is the one downloaded by hand); support is what would make more of it possible. Counts that could be read, not read here yet: . Vote early, but no count found during voting: . No early voting without an excuse: Alabama and New Hampshire. Each is listed under the board with its office’s page.

Florida and Maryland overwrote their daily counts in 2022 and 2024 and kept only the final ones. Their earlier days come from the copies the Internet Archive happened to save of the states’ own pages, so they are compared only on the days a copy exists; Florida’s 2024 gaps are partly filled from a second copy kept by the MIT Election Data and Science Lab, used only where it matches the archive exactly. Nevada is compared on Clark County’s mail ballots alone: only Clark County’s files can be read while voting is under way, and its past in-person files do not all carry party. Clark County processes its first large batch of mail ballots on a different day each year, so Nevada is compared with a year only once both have logged 5% of that year’s final mail count; the party gap waits too, because the county’s few early returns lean differently from its later ballots.

Each earlier year is read on the same day of its own voting where the state’s law or election office gives the first day of voting for both years, and otherwise at the same number of days before the election; each state’s own fold says which. Where 2022 kept no count for the day and 2024 did, the board compares with 2024 and names it.

A state gets the day-by-day chart once its counts share at least a week of days with 2022 or 2024; until then it shows where it stands, today beside the same day of an earlier year where a count for that day was kept, and says why there is no chart yet. Totals of all votes cast and each year’s result come from the Federal Election Commission’s compilations of the states’ official results: Federal Elections 2022 (the U.S. Senate race, or the House statewide where there was none) and the official 2024 presidential results. Nevada, counted on Clark County’s mail alone, is never set against a statewide figure.

Counts come straight from each state; we publish totals only and never the voter-level records some states release. See the methodology for how the forecast itself works; nothing on this page enters it.
