Day 1 Turnout Numbers
By Byron LaMasters
They're not up on the Secretary of State Website yet, but the Statesman has these numbers:
Among the major counties' totals were 20,868 in Harris County; 20,566 in Dallas County; 15,375 in Bexar County; 17,685 in Tarrant County; and 15,983 in Travis County.
That's a total of 144,598 in the 15 largest counties statewide yesterday compared to 84,809 four years ago. I saw the Travis County Tax Assessor on the local news last night and she said that 95% of potential Travis County voters were registered, and that she was expecting a turnout countywide of 60-65%. That wouldn't surprise me.
