Early voting stats for Shelby County

(through Saturday - doesn't include Monday's numbers)
- Turnout is good.
- Only 2.4% are low-propensity voters (voted in fewer than 25% of the November general elections in 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022, and 2024)
- Voter participation is still skewed heavily (as always) with age: older people vote a lot and younger don't
But these statistics don't show us who people are actually voting for - "party lean" can change.
