An accommodation that allows voting up to two weeks before Election Day is known as what?

• A. Absentee Ballot
• B. Early Voting
• C. Same-Day Registration
• D. Election Day Voting

Answer: (B)

Early voting is the option to vote before Election Day, usually at designated polling sites during a set period beforehand. The phrase about voting up to two weeks before the election fits this practice, which is designed to give people flexibility and help shorten crowds on Election Day. Absentee ballots are typically mail-in ballots used when you can’t vote in person and often require a prior request, which is different from the in-person pre-Election Day window. Same-day registration is about registering to vote on or close to Election Day, not about voting early. Election Day voting means casting a ballot only on the day itself. So the description best matches early voting.
