Polling places have had to make adjustments to prevent spread of the virus, which is climbing to new heights in the United States. Follow our live coronavirus updates here.

Poll Workers

The pandemic threatened to upend the country’s election infrastructure, which is primarily run by older Americans who serve as clerks and poll workers. This age group is most likely to suffer the worst effects of the coronavirus. Many states recruited a younger generation of poll workers.

Long lines at polling places have been a persistent sight in 2020. During primaries and early voting, some reported waiting many hours to cast ballots. Lines remained on Election Day as the final group of voters surged to the polls.

Voting in person on Election Day still held a certain appeal for the people lining up early Tuesday — whether because it had become tradition or because they just could not sleep. Read more about the voters who arrived before dawn and other live election updates here.

Vote by Mail

The coronavirus pandemic has made finding an alternative to in-person activities essential. Voting was no exception. Many states expanded access to absentee voting and have since seen record numbers of ballots requested. This influx, however, is setting up for a protracted vote count as some states were not allowed to begin opening or counting the ballots until Tuesday.

Election Day is always the Tuesday after the first Monday in November, but the day circled on the calendar every four years is no longer the singular time when American elections happen.

This year, millions of Americans voted as soon as they could. They sent ballots back in the mail, deposited them into drop boxes, handed them off to municipal clerks or county elections boards, or went to early voting centers. — REID J. EPSTEIN
