Early turnout in Israel and the midterms may be read before any results

Turnout in Israel’s election reached 16.68% by 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 27, the highest at that hour since 1981, the Central Elections Committee said, Ynet reported. In the U.S., more than 30 million midterm ballots have been cast a week before Election Day, CNN and PBS News reported. Read together, they may show early turnout being read for meaning before any results exist.
