Travis County Early Voting Results for the March 3 Democratic Primary Election
By Mike Clark-Madison, March 3, 2020, 7:50pm, Newsdesk
Looking for the final numbers? See Travis County's final tally here..
Travis County saw record-breaking turnout in early voting – but the unsettled presidential contest means Election Day returns will matter more than usual.
Here's what happened early on the Dem side (the GOP primary is boring this year); for statewide and multi-county (Congress, State Board of Education) numbers, hit up the Texas Secretary of State for complete returns.
Candidates must get 50% of the votes in their race to avoid a run-off (the presidential race is an exception). Please remember that these are ONLY the early voting numbers and ONLY the numbers for Travis County. The state and national races listed below only include the Travis County votes and does not include mail-in ballots.
