Day 1 of early voting for Election 2020 kicked off to a very brisk start yesterday in Texas. The Department of Texas Secretary of State reported 456,149 in person votes across the state by close of business. There may also be upward of 100,000 votes not yet fed into the Department’s website as of yet, so expect voter data updates during the day.
Many liberal media outlets are reporting 1 million votes on Day 1. This does not tally with processed votes for October 13th on the Texas Secretary of State website.
Texas is also reporting that 306,411 people have returned mail-in ballots to state officials as of close of business yesterday October 13th 2020. This brings a total of 762,560 vote completed in Texas or 4.5% of the total registered voters in the State.
Texas has registered over 1.8 million new voters since the 2016 Presidential election bring the Statewide total of registered voters to 16.9 million. Many urban districts are reporting close to 100% levels of voters registration.
Media reports yesterday had Harris county reporting at 120,000 voters, yet the Texas secretary of State is reporting that county at 63,652 for yesterday. If true, we would expect tomorrow’s early vote figures to reflect that reality.
Texas Early voting continues until October 30th 2020.
