Early voting access this election cycle

About 97% of voters will have the option to cast their general election ballots early this year, according to a new report from the Center for Election Innovation and Research. Only about 40% of voters were able to do so back in 2000. CBS News election law contributor David Becker founded the Center for Election Innovation and Research and oversaw the team that worked on the report. He shed some light on the significance of the increase in early voting access.

Meanwhile, President Biden had a call with Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss Rafah and humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Raphael Cohen, the director of the strategy and doctrine program at RAND's Project AIR FORCE, joins CBS News with more.
