Holy Guacamole! Early Vote Turnout Soars.
By Jim Dallas
I thought it was a little odd that there was a line almost out the door at the Precinct 7 Constable's Office this morning (where I voted).
Turns out its not so odd this year.Top-15-County First-day early voting turnout is four times what it was in 2000! And an almost 600% increase over 2002!
(190,271 votes in 2004 versus 43,733 votes in 2000; the only change to the list was the substitution of Lubbock County with Williamson County in 2002 and 2004).

I was just going to post that the SOS number are up! So fast you are...
And in 2000, the first day total actually dipped from 1996 when the 15 county early vote was 31,658.
And for Travis Country...
3178 first day votes in 1996
6010 first day votes in 2000
15,983 first day votes in 2004!
