John Sweeney explained to CoastTV why he prefers the early voting option as opposed to waiting until Nov. 5.

"I think early voting is great," Sweeney said. "I work in San Francisco half the time, so this allows me to vote; otherwise, I wouldn't have that opportunity."

Early voting in Delaware ends at 7 p.m. each day and runs through Nov. 3.
