Early Voting Numbers Low

Low early voting numbers for the Mar 1 Texas Primary have some pointing the finger at the state’s new election reforms. Less than three percent of registered voters took advantage of early voting, that’s down nearly 15-percent from the 2018 primary early voting tally. Grace Chimene, the President of the Texas League of Women Voters, fears the state’s new voting restrictions are turning people away. The changes to mail-in voting have already resulted in the rejection of tens of thousands of applications.
