Indiana: Democrats leading the early voting surge according to survey

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — With the excitement surrounding the election, it should be no surprise that early voting numbers are up.

In Marion County, the clerk’s office is averaging about 900 voters per day. At this point in 2012 it was closer to 700.

According to the WISH-TV/Ball State Hoosier survey, one particular party has more early voters.

When the 800 Hoosiers surveyed were asked who they plan to vote for, about 43 percent of them said Donald Trump, while 37 percent said Hillary Clinton.

But when asked if a person had already early voted the results flipped.

Trump had only 29 percent of early voters in the survey while Clinton climbed ahead to 59 percent.

After looking at other races in the survey, it appears democrats are casting their ballots earlier than republicans.
