We have a week and a day to go. What seems likely at this point is fewer people will vote early than in the general, which is expected since run-off elections tend to have lower turnout and there were three fewer days of in-person early voting with the holidays

What does this mean for Election Day voters? If the three fewer in-person days affected early turnout, perhaps Election Day will be a greater share of the overall electorate. 1) the ratio of early to Election Day is off plus 2) some people who might vote early vote Election Day

Appears Whites will be about the same % of early voters as the general, maybe slightly less. African-Americans are a greater share, mostly at the expense of other groups. But, the Election Day unknown turnout makes forecasting hard. Best to say the election appears very close
