Burnt Orange Report

Student Prop 2 Results

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

I realized that I never posted this information when I was running through Prop 2 results. Here are the results for the heavily student populated precints here in Austin. These add up to about 7,000 student voters when you account for a couple of variables, which is quite a boost from the maybe 1,000 student votes cast in the 2003 Constitutional Amendement election. You can see these (most all purple) on the precinct map of Travis County available to download in .pdf format here.

Student Precincts by region are as follows...
