At least 12.6 million people have already voted. That is more people than live in Ohio.

Eleven days before Election Day, at least 12.6 million Americans have already voted in 37 states, according to data collected by CNN and Catalist. The partisan split is generally slightly better for Democrat Hillary Clinton than for President Obama in 2012, but that's not true across all key swing states — and early voting isn't all that predictive of which candidate actually wins in the end. Still, 12.6 million is a pretty impressive number.

To put it in context, 12.6 million is more than the entire Hispanic vote in the 2012 election, 11.2 million, and a little less than the total ballots cast in California (13.2 million), the largest and most electorally important state. It's roughly equal to the number of votes cast in 2012 in Florida and North Carolina combined, or the total population of Pennsylvania (12.8 million), and greater than the number of people who live in Ohio, 11.6 million.

If you want to know who's going to win the presidential race, you'll have to wait until the night of Nov. 8. But if you haven't cast your ballot yet, the BBC has a short reminder of things you shouldn't do in the voting booth (see: selfies) — inspired by this year's most famous early voter, Justin Timberlake.
