About 27 million absentee and early votes were cast in 30 states as of Saturday night, more than ever. Democrats outnumbered Republicans in pre-election day voting in key states.
Some early voting centres across the U.S. have seen massive turnouts, with voters forced to wait in long lines for hours.
In Columbus, Ohio, the spokesman for Franklin County, Michael Stinziano, said people started lining up at the early voting centre at 6:30 a.m., even though voting did not begin until 1 p.m.
"I think it is fair to say that we had a four-hour line before we opened the doors," Stinziano said in an e-mail to CNN.
