LateToCult 41,993 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 More than 9 million people have voted early in the key state of Texas, surpassing the state's total turnout from the 2016 general election, with one more day of in-person early voting remaining Friday ahead of Election Day. Texans cast 8.96 million ballots in the 2016 presidential election, according to the Texas secretary of state's website. The high turnout this election so far accounts for more than half -- 53% -- of registered voters in the Lone Star State. The number of total registered voters has grown 12% since 2016 -- almost 1.9 million people. Nearly 433,000 people went to the polls on Thursday to cast their ballot, bringing the total of in-person votes to over 8 million, according to the Texas secretary of state's website. Mail-in ballots, which continue to flow in from all over the state, account for over 947,000 votes so far. The turnout among registered voters in 2020, 53% as it stands, could also exceed the near 59% of registered voters who turned out for the 2016 presidential election, according to the Texas secretary of state's website. link: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2020/10/30/politics/texas-2020-early-vote/index.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromatican 4,046 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Too bad Texas is not going blue. The only hope we have is that the margin of Trump's TX victory is small, so Biden's inevitable popular vote win is even bigger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
