Huge turnout when I voted on the first day of early voting(Had to early vote to get mistakes that the government had made(my registration was fine in 2018, they screwed it up on their own in 2020, I did not move) on my voter registration corrected, they had said on the phone a week before that I had to clear them up in person at the early voting place.).
The local Tea Party and democrats were handing out voting guides and materials. Far more of the tea party materials were taken by those in line. Heard one of the democrats ask why so many people had "those red cards" in a flustered voice. Of course my area is generally very red. Had to wait in line from 8:30am ish to 11ish.
Since Texas allows you to vote early at any location in your county, my wife and I made a road trip (~20 min) to a small town and were in and out in 10 minutes.
If you have that option, keep it in mind for next election.
It should be noted that is based on presumed party registration data from OTHER sources.
Texas doesn't have party affiliation at the time you register. If you vote in a primary, attend a state convention, or sign a candidate's petition you will be affiliated with that party for the remainder of the election cycle (so you can't vote in the other party's primary).
If you didn't do any of those things, you won't be affiliated. So, I would be hesitant to ascribe any significance to party ID.
The Dems are trying to overcome this: https://www.toptradeguru.com/news/elections-2020/results/texas-early-ballot-returns-shows-polls-are-wrong/
Based on this, I just hope the left has woken up Texas conservatives and we're simply seeing a massive turnout to stomp them into the ground.
I think it’s a little of both - massive voter turnout and some fraud.
i heard they caught some fraud in TX.
Remember, when we hear about all the fraud, that means somebody caught it.
I know the Trump army is diligent in getting everybody involved, including myself, so let's just keep working.
