Most of those that do say that more Dems have early/mail voted than Repubs.

Hopeful thing to remember is that when turnout is high, it tends to favor Dems. That has been true for quite a few cycles. Case in point: 2018 had some record turnout in many areas and there was the first part of the blue wave we all hope is continuing now.
