Early Vote Looks Good For High Turnout

Through the first seven days of this election's early voting, the totals of the in-person and mail-in ballots are substantially higher than the seven day totals for the 2002 election. These are combined and cumulative totals and were taken from the Secretary of State's web site for 2002 and 2006. The numbers are especially high for Fort Bend and Galveston counties, and low for El Paso and Hidalgo counties. This is how the percentages stack up:

HARRIS
up 59.2%

DALLAS
up 36.1%

BEXAR
up 55.8%

TARRANT
up 18.7%

TRAVIS
up 4.5%

COLLIN
up 66.2%

EL PASO
up 0.8%

DENTON
up 54.4%

HIDALGO
down 26.3%

FORT BEND
up 131.9%

MONTGOMERY
up 35.3%

WILLIAMSON
up 52.6%

NUECES
up 42.4%

GALVESTON
up 106.8%
