A total of 84,209 people or 4.97% of all eligible voters cast their ballots in the first two days of the three-day early voting for the 24 April general election, a significant increase over what was already a record turnout in early voting for the waters act referendum last July.
The figure also exceeds the overall turnout for the 2018 early voting, which was at 3.1%.
