In general elections in the United States, there is typically just one day designated for voting, which is known as Election Day. However, some states offer early voting options that extend the voting period for a few days or weeks leading up to Election Day. Additionally, some states allow for absentee or mail-in voting, which allows eligible voters to submit their ballots by mail instead of voting in person on Election Day.

Voting changed in America from the early days to the present in a significant way. For instance, back in 1788, only men who were over 21 years and paying taxes were eligible to vote while today everyone who has attained the majority age can vote in the US.
When voting first began in 1788, only white males above 21 years of age had the privilege. Now, women and men regardless of race can vote if they are over the age of 18.
It was 66 days long
