Aristotle Launches Early and Absentee Voting Dashboard for 2026 Midterms

Washington, D.C., Oct. 13, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Aristotle, a political technology and data firm based in Washington, D.C., has launched a new Early and Absentee Voting Dashboard for the 2026 midterm general elections. The dashboard, which is free and publicly accessible, compiles verified early and absentee voter data every day leading up to the election, with fresh numbers posted each morning at 5:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

Designed for media buyers, researchers, and journalists, the dashboard allows users to view early and absentee voting data nationwide or break it down to the state’s congressional districts, legislative districts, counties, and media markets. Users can compare early voter turnout across key demographic features, party affiliation, and 2022 select voting totals. According to Andrew Tavani, Executive Vice President of Data at Aristotle, the dashboard provides a comprehensive view of the early electorate, offering insights that were once reserved for expensive proprietary tools.

The new dashboard builds on the primary edition by adding several features. It includes partisan benchmarks, which show how the party makeup of pre-election voters differs from all registered voters in the same area. This allows users to see at a glance which side is over- or under-performing its registration. Additionally, the dashboard now includes 2022 early voting history, making it easy to compare this year's early and absentee votes with those of the 2022 midterms. A new section on reach by channel provides the number of contactable records among all registered voters, broken out by channel: households, landlines, cellphones, email addresses, and IP addresses. This feature is particularly useful for media buyers and campaigns looking to build digital ad strategies aimed at voters who have not yet cast their ballots.

Aristotle's national voter file, which covers more than 233 million registered voters, forms the backbone of the dashboard. The company's products and services span campaign technology, data analytics, PAC compliance, grassroots advocacy, and identity verification. The Early and Absentee Voting Dashboard is part of Aristotle's ongoing efforts to provide data-driven insights to those involved in the political process.

The dashboard is designed to help media buyers track where early ballots are piling up and identify which audiences have already voted, allowing them to avoid chasing voters who have already cast their ballots. For researchers and journalists, the dashboard offers a free, daily, verified data source for covering turnout patterns, partisan dynamics, and demographic shifts across the country. Advocates and engaged citizens can also use the dashboard to gain insights into the early electorate, which was previously only accessible through expensive proprietary tools.

In a midterm cycle, a significant portion of the electorate will have voted well before Election Day. The Early and Absentee Voting Dashboard helps media buyers and campaigns target their efforts more effectively, ensuring that their final weeks of spending are focused on the voters who still need to cast their ballots. The dashboard is available now and can be accessed through the company's website.
