“ARE THEY COUNTING VOTES ALREADY?”

Dunno. They are counting how many people have voted early apparently. Don’t know if they are running their tallies. I would think not. But those votes can be tallied quickly on 11/2 or by whatever election law governs their count.

When you vote early, just as when you vote on the day, your name is checked in the voter rolls. They can look at the number of people who have voted and get a count. They don’t see who you voted for, but they can see that you voted.

They are allowed to report this because it is public record.

Not necessarily, it’s easy to see who has already voted...I’d be more concerned if they WEREN’T keeping track of this.
