Maryland early voting: 2016 vs. 2012

Maryland elections officials expect record turnout during early voting this year, which runs from Thursday, Oct. 27 to Thursday, Nov. 3 at select polling locations. Here's a look at how daily early voting stacks up against the 2012 general election, the first time early voting was used in Maryland during a presidential contest. The state has since expanded the number of early voting centers and increased the number of days those centers will stay open.
