Top 10s
By Karl-Thomas Musselman
Byron sent me a great file tonight that has the Prop 2 vote broken down by county with turnout percentages. If you'd like to download it and play around with things to see where your county falls, click here. It's in excel format.
I've pulled out some Top 10 lists already. One note, 23 counties voted below the state average on Prop 2, so the first list is a Top 23 list.

Looks like Travis County wins one of the Champions of the Republic plaques from the Secretary of State for having the highest turnout among counties over 250,000. King County wins the under 250,000 award. Travis County, Champion of the Republic... how much you want to bet the Secretary of State forgets to send us our plaque.
