库特奈县提前投票首日1023人投票创纪录：较上届中期选 举首日大增52%
爱达荷州库特奈县的提前投票本周一开放，选民热情高涨。据县选举部门统计，截至周一下午4时，已有1023人在县选举办公室投下选票，创下过去四年历次选举提前投票首日的最高纪录；这一数字较2022年上届中期选举首日大增52%，也略高于2024年总统选举周期首日的人数。
本次选举中有两项全州议题被认为带动了投票意愿：一是主张将堕胎权保障至胎儿可存活阶段、紧急情况除外的第1号提案，二是拟赋予州议会合法化大麻及其他精神活性物质专属权力的众议院第4号联合决议。县选举办公室是库特奈县唯一的提前投票点，工作日上午8时至下午5时开放，持续至10月30日；此后选民须等到选举日当天，前往各自投票站投票。
选举官员提醒，选举日结束前，官方不会公布任何投票结果。
