Early and absentee voters who already regret casting their ballot can still change it, up to two or three times, in some states.
According to CNN, some estimate as much as 40 percent of voters will cast their ballots before Election Day. In most states that allow vote changing, voters have to show up to the polls to have their earlier vote nullified before they revote. Only the final vote will be counted.
"Wisconsin state law actually allows a person to change their mind and vote a new ballot if they have submitted an absentee ballot," Neil Albrecht, executive director of the Milwaukee Election Commission, told WISN.
Wisconsin even allows voters to change their ballot up to three times before it is counted.
"We would let the individual, the voter, vote again and document that this was their second ballot issued. We'd keep a record of that, so they would only have up to three opportunities," Oshkosh City Clerk Pam Ubrig told WBAY.
According to the City Clerk's office, no one has changed their vote three times.
"Whatever happened before a few days ago, I already made my personal decision and anything else, barring anything really big, and I did see those headlines, but it didn't change my vote," Peter Czarkowski of Milwaukee told WISN.
Other states that allow voters to change their early ballot include: Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut and Mississippi; however, in battleground states Florida, North Carolina, Ohio and Arizona, changing your vote is prohibited.
