Early voting in presidential elections has begun in some US states. More than 10 states will begin early voting in the coming weeks
In some American states have begun early voting on presidential elections, which are scheduled for November 5.
Voters lined up in Minnesota, South Dakota and Virginia, where polls are open. More than 10 states will begin early voting in the coming weeks, the Associated Press reported.
The start of early voting followed a tumultuous summer - the exit of President Joe Biden from the race, the entry of Vice President Kamala Harris and two failed assassination attempts on Donald Trump.
All over the country, election boards are trying to strengthen the security of the voting process and to ensure that their members and polling stations are well secured, so that the whole process goes without fraud. Election committee members were targeted after the 2020 elections and received death threats.
As Voice of America reports, federal authorities are investigating suspicious packages sent to election board members over the past 15 days, including those in Virginia, where voting began today.
Some voters went to the polls early because of the potential chaos on Election Day, and many voters are opting to go to the polls instead of voting by mail to make sure their vote counts, due to issues with the US Postal Service.
Local and state officials have warned that mail delivery problems threaten to disenfranchise citizens and that the deficiencies have not been corrected, regardless of their attempts to fix them.
The director of the Post Office, Louis Dejoy, said that he would work to solve the problem and reiterated that the Post Office would be ready.
Some states count mail-in votes even if they arrive after Election Day, provided they are mailed no later than Election Day, while Minnesota counts only those mail-in votes that arrive by the close of the polls on Election Day.

Israeli forces have launched another attack on Iran, targeting sites near the Fordoz nuclear facility south of Tehran, the BBC reports. Tehran responded with a missile attack on the Jewish state
The Israeli military's biggest attack on Iran in decades, carried out overnight under the code name "Rising Lion", targeted all key segments of the Islamic Republic's nuclear program. During the operation, leading physicists, including Fereydoun Abbasi, were killed, and technological and military facilities were also hit. The world woke up this morning with the question: has a nuclear conflict just been avoided - or has it just begun
Only one of the 242 passengers survived the crash of an Air India plane on Thursday (June 12th), the airline confirmed
Israel has fiercely attacked Iran because it would allegedly be able to produce atomic weapons in just a few months. Regardless, the arch-enemy of the Jewish state has not been so weak for decades
Israel carried out a "preventive" attack on Iran, Defense Minister Israel Katz said. He cited Tehran's atomic program as the reason. The airstrikes that began after midnight could be a prelude to an all-out attack. In the first wave, the commander of the Revolutionary Guard was killed
Vučić is not defending the state, but himself from the state. With a drum on his back and a guitar in his hands, this man-orchestra performs two or three of the same songs without hearing, with falsifications and falling out of rhythm. His government and politics are like that. In short - dangerous for the environment
Arrests of professors, punishment of people, firing of journalists... The regime of Aleksandar Vučić is shining and is yet to shine. It is the decadent phase of the regime, the one towards the end
The example of the elections in Zaječar and Kosjerić shows that the truth is not given, but assumed. Truth is a task that a citizen fulfills. She always wins
