Jacob Neiheisel, Associate Professor in political science, was recently quoted in magazine. The article, posted before the presidential results, explained the trends of early-voting numbers and how it might impact the presidential race. Neiheisel commented that there’s still a debate whether early voting brings in new voters or if it simply moves votes that would have been cast on Election Day to an earlier time. Making it difficult to conclude how early voting numbers might influence the final outcome.
