What it does is give an indication of who the winner is going to be. There's a lot of speculation based on turnout of certain areas. This could affect people who have not voted yet.

Larger voter base. In the old days, you were given the day off to vote. Not anymore. It is convenient to have early voting. I don't really see a problem with it.
