Here's what we're covering.
Across the U.S.
more than 50 million voters have already cast their ballots.
The election's mostly been running smoothly, but the country is still on edge.
Authorities have warned about political violence and foreign powers spreading disinformation.
There are also concerns about how the actual counting of the votes will play out.

Alexandra Berzon covers voting for the Times.
She says that people steeped in Donald Trump's false claims about rigged elections are now in some cases in charge of the election process in communities across the country.
