Rachel La Due was one of many people waiting in a line that wrapped around the street at the Zeidler Municipal Building to cast her vote for this year's general election.
"It honestly makes me really emotional to see how passionate people are about making their voices heard and about getting the vote out early," said La Due.
She wasn't the only one pleasantly surprised by Tuesday's early voting turn out.
"What are your thoughts seeing such a long line on the first day of early voting?" TMJ4's Mariam Mackar asked voter, Clarence Montgomery.
"It's awesome— just awesome. The more people participating the better outcome we'll have," said Montogomery.
By early afternoon Tuesday, the downtown voting site at the Zeidler already had over 250 voters cast their ballots.
Montgomery says those numbers are encouraging.
"This is a national election— it's very important and people are coming out."
