“It’s time to take the country back, folks,” Mr. Biden said, as his speech drew to a close. “It’s going to start here, today, with voting in Minnesota.”

He then put his mask on and walked away from the lectern.

Mr. Trump, on Twitter, urged supporters in Virginia to vote as polls opened Friday. The president did not mention early voting in Minnesota, where he was planning to speak, or in South Dakota and Wyoming, states he is widely expected to win.

“Voting starts in Virginia TODAY, and we are going to WIN,” he wrote about a state in which his campaign has not bought a single television advertisement this election cycle, according to Advertising Analytics. “I’ll be having a Big Rally in Virginia, to be announced soon!”

Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota appeared at an event Friday morning to promote early voting with Senator Amy Klobuchar and other top Minnesota Democrats in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Park.

Mr. Walz said most of Minnesota’s early voting would take place by mail. He said he had received his own ballot but had not yet returned it.
