An astounding 11,786 surge of ballots cast during the last two days of the 12-day early voting period in Cameron County pushed the totals this year over the comparable period during the mid-term elections of 2018.
Remi Garza, CERA, Cameron County Elections Administrator, released the totals Friday night after the close of the early voting period and said that: "Total In-person Early Votes is 51,816, which surpasses 2018’s In-person total of 50,916, which at that time was the highest early voting turnout for a Mid-Term Election."
Out of all the Valley counties (this is counting mail-in ballots, too), Starr County voters turned out the most, with about 27.2 percent casting their ballots or sending them in by mail. Hidalgo County saw about 24.93 percent, Cameron County came in close with 24.06 percent and Willacy County followed with about 15.16 percent, according to data from the Texas Secretary of State’s Office.
The totals released by Garza included 19,951 cast in the Brownsville Independent School District.
In the 2018 midterms, early voting turnout of 50,916 (not counting mail-in votes) amounted to 64.2 percent of the total number cast (79,358).
If the same hold true for 2022, – and barring bad weather – we can expect an estimated 80,710 election total after the final votes are cast on election day. In close races, election day turnout could make the difference between victory and defeat for many candidates.
According to Garza, there are an estimated 228,000 registered voters in Cameron County, If 81,000 votes are cast in this general election, this would signify nearly a 35.5 percent turnout.
If you haven't voted yet, please vote this coming Tuesday. The candidates are counting on you.

It's always going to break a record!!!!

Fake news!!!!
The wave in the Valley should be brown skinned. Just do it! Go out and vote! In Vicente Siempre Miente wins great. If Ber-go-s Mex-i-co wins great.
JUST VOTE!
A simple google search would have shown you 19651 people vote in the BISD election in 2018. The question is, between 2018 and 2022 how many new people registered to vote. That number tells you if the number of people actually went up. You look at percentages not merely numbers.
https://www.cameroncountytx.gov/elections/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/02_BISD_11022018.pdf
In 2018, 39% of the voters voted. https://www.sos.state.tx.us/elections/historical/cameron.shtml
That is more than you are projecting now. Also there are about 15,000 new voters since 2018. When you do the percentages, fewer voted in 2022 early voting than 2018.
You should have paid Tadd Hasse to crunch the numbers for you.
In 2018 25% voted early. Based on 228000current registered voters 57000 should have voted early. 2022 early voting based on the number of voters is way down.
Prepare your anus Montoya!
Funny....."Prepare......."
RED WAVE COMING YOUR WAY YOU FUCKING DEMOCRAT SCUM! That’s what you get for turning woke! How did Biden work out for you? Still waiting for Francis to come take my AR.
Its the sysytem here you can vote as many times as you want. As a family here there are 10 people in the house so we can vote 5 or 6 times that makes it 50 votes. fact no wonder...

Elon Musk's inner circle hints at a very different future for Twitter on policy and politics
If you want to use twitter you're going to have to pay with the exception of the local county judge el enano.
He gave boca chica to muskies FREEREEEEEeeeeee. VOTE HIM OUT DO NOT RE-ELECT HIM AGAIN HE WILL GIVE MUSKIES MORE PRIME LAND, FREEEEEEEE!!!
No one gave Elon Musk anything. He paid for Boca Chica. Just check the bank accounts of the politicos and you’ll find out how much he paid.
Do I hear the Republican assh*les puckering on these comments lol. Why don't that Maga moron and his crybaby cult take his ar15 and do everyone a favor shove it .
Who cares about the percentage of voters? The problem is the percentage of voters who have no knowledge as to the qualifications of the candidates they’re voting for, but yet they’re voting. Republicans plan to make a law requiring all registered voters to pass an intelligence exam before being allowed to vote. This will eliminate all Mexicans from this ghetto town from voting.
A Beto se la meto!

DMS has reported what everyone saw in Cameron county, the percentage of voters in 2022, from 2018 is way down and in especially Democratic Strong holds. A friend of mine got out of line at the library and did not vote because he could all the nut jobs outside yelling all this craziness.

Boca Chica Beach was in a natural state. Mother Nature still resides there in all her Glory. The ones that are fking stupid are people like you who speak through the arse holes.
Old people from the day care centers were told they applying for more benefits. The centers bus them in and show them how to fill in the forms. Democrats control the day care centers.
