Allegany County: Early voting set to outpace 2020 election

Allegany County Elections officials confirm to WRN that 2024 early voting numbers will easily surpass 2020. As of 5 p.m. Tuesday, a total of 2,490 early votes were cast in Allegany County. That’s less than 800 total votes cast early in 2020…and there is still five days of early voting to go! Officials say college voting is also off the charts, locally.  As of the close of polls on Tuesday, 1,328 Republicans have cast ballots and 687 Democrats have voted while another 475 listed as ‘other’ has also voted.

In Wellsville 644 people have already taken advantage of early voting. County officials say the numbers are well ahead of previous years.

Officials also say that they sent out 1,563 absentee ballots and that so far, 844 have been returned. Officials say that appears to be “normal.”

As of Tuesday, the total turnout rate in Allegany County has reached 8.98% of the total.

Here is a breakdown by precinct:




On Wednesday, early voting resumes at the Board of Elections in Belmont from 8-8, Wellsville from 8-7, and Alfred from 8-4.
