That beats the 696,000 who voted early in the 2019 general election.

Alberta NDP Leader Rachel Notley held a major rally in downtown Calgary Saturday morning, while her United Conservative rival had no public events planned this weekend after a final pitch to voters a day earlier.

Election day is Monday.
