The first day of in-person early voting for the 2024 West Virginia General Election appears to be the highest it’s been in the last several elections according to WV Secretary of State Mac Warner.

Wednesday was the first day that all 55 counties held in-person early voting. Based on preliminary data, Warner estimates that 33,672 voters cast a ballot on Wednesday. Based on reports and preliminary data, turnout for the first day of early voting far surpassed other recent elections.
