Primary Election Tuesday

By Lee Nichols, March 1, 2010, 11:34am, Newsdesk

Tomorrow (March 2) is Texas Independence Day. It's also party primary day in Texas. What better way to show your patriotism than voting?

Not many of you took advantage of the ever-so-convenient early voting – only 15,826 in Travis County, less than 3% of registered voters – so now you'll have to do it the less convenient way: actually voting in your neighborhood precinct.

So if you consider yourself a Democrat or Republican (sorry, none of the minor parties hold primaries) or you just want to support particular candidates in one primary or the other (sorry, you can't vote in both), get down to the polls.

Polls will be open 7am-7pm; after they close, head to http://austinchronicle.com/election for full coverage.
