(Community Matters) I was shocked to read that voter turnout in Travis County totaled only 39.8%. Turns out, 40% was the estimated national average voter turnout for midterms. Examiner.com reporting Texas’ as lowest state in the country at only 28% (DC at 27%). Questions about our spend in light of these numbers.
btw, 55.8% of Travis County voters voted early; 53% statewide
48% of Travis County voter pulled a straight party ticket – 30% Democrat, 18% Republican
