Murray, KY – Tuesday's voter turnout is projected to be record-breaking across the US. And that's despite almost 20 million Americans having cast their ballot early in other parts of the country. Kentucky is one of the few states that have no special early voting laws.

Kentucky Public Radio's Tony McVeigh has the story.
