Texas primary turnout is highest in 20 years
From the Dallas Morning News
The high-profile Republican race for governor helped draw the most voters to a Texas primary election in 20 years – and perhaps set a record for a GOP primary.
The Texas secretary of states office said Wednesday that slightly more than 2.1 million, or 16.5 percent of registered voters, cast ballots in the Republican and Democratic primaries.
That total was the highest since 1990 and a big increase over the 2006 primaries, when 1.2 million voters and 9 percent of those registered showed up.
