7. How does that compare to 2020?

We know that 53% of the total - early and election day -- voters in 2020 were female. Was that more or less than the percentage of early voters? Is the lead in early voting by women this year going to be offset by a higher percentage of male voters on election day?

I'm optimistic about the outcome, but I'm not going to base my optimism on statistics that don't really tell me that much.
