Early voting in 2020 U.S. presidential election soars amid COVID-19 fears

美, 대선 사전투표 7배 급증...공화당, 우편투표 수거함 무단설치

With the U.S. presidential election just three weeks away, the COVID-19 pandemic has sparked a massive frenzy to vote early.
According to the U.S. Elections Project, more than 10-point-6 million voters had cast their ballot either in-person or via mail as of Tuesday.
That's more than seven times the number who had voted early at the same point four years ago.
With the frenzy, California is in a dispute with the Republican Party over unofficial ballot drop boxes, set up in at least three of its counties.
California on Monday ordered the GOP to remove all the boxes by Thursday, but the Republicans are refusing, saying state law does not ban them doing what they're doing.
