Travis County Turnout Breaks 100,000
By Karl-Thomas Musselman
I finally have an update on the vote here in Travis County...
Monday: 16,698
Tuesday: 16,887
Wednesday: 17,613
Thursday: 15,329
Friday: 15,444
Saturday: 13,238
Sunday: 7,307
Total Vote to Date (including Mobile and Mail): 102,516
That's a turnout of 18.5% of registered voters already.
(Just to note, it started raining Saturday evening and was also generally nasty for much of Sunday, a very likely explanation for the dip in turnout. In addition, Sunday voting was on shortened hours.)
Interestingly, not all places dipped in turnout equally this weekend. As expected the UT Campus location went from a solid 1200+ a day to less than 200 a day. Most of the Randalls locations were steady from Friday to Saturday with about a 50% drop to Sunday. Home Depot actually ticked up on Saturday as did Highland Mall and Northcross Mall. The HEB locations also faired better than average.
At some point I may make a chart when the next couple of day's data is in again.
If you would like to look at the number yourself, here is the file.
