Texas is now at 90% of its total 2016 turnout.

[Marius25]

Over 8.1 million have voted so far. In 2016, 8.9 million total voted and Hillary lost by 800,000 votes. Some people say if the total reaches at least 10.5 million votes, Biden is likely winning Texas.

1. Holy smokes Batman. n/t

[lagomorph777]

2. WTF?!?! I don't think we can even grasp the magnitude of this tidal wave.

[roamer65]

3. Wow...with 5 days left till Election Day.

I bet it passes 9 million before Election Day itself.

[Wounded Bear]

4. How long is early voting open? nt

[FreeState]

6. Until Friday n/t

[roamer65]

7. Yup, just looked it up. October 13 to October 30.

Vote Texas! VOTE!

Winning TX for the Dems will rip the heart right out of the Repukes.

14. trumps latino vote has gone up

[Turin_C3PO]

21. Maybe.

But he's doing far worse in the Texas suburbs. Democrats can win this state. Either way, it'll be close.

[samsingh]

23. i hope the Latinos come back

[Johnny2X2X]

5. 137 millin people voted in 2016

If we get to 155 million this election, those extra 18 million people that voted will be 90% for the challenger.

How many more votes will Trump get? He has not expanded his base at all.

[Wounded Bear]

8. I have it on good report that at least 8 or 10 black folks are voting for Trump...

[roamer65]

10. I am hoping for 160 million.

[whttevrr]

9. WOW! This is big...

NBC was calling it a toss up yesterday.

If Texas goes blue, we could actually fix things again.

[SoonerPride]

11. I have this feeling texas may turn blue

and hell may have frozen over.

[Mike 03]

13. That would be the happiest day of my life.

I hope this happens

[Mike 03]

12. That's amazing.

This is so heartening. I don't want to get my expectations up unreasonably, but this give me enormous hope.

[kitron]

15. Amazing

At this rate it will definitely be above 100% of 2016 by election day.

[The Magistrate]

20. It Will Indeed, Sir

Welcome to the forum.

Expect we're all dreaming of a blue Texas....

[MineralMan]

16. That is truly remarkable!

It gives me additional hope.

[beachbumbob]

17. If all votes are counted, Texas could be a huge surprise. Pundits ignore

the fact that Cruz only beat Beto by 3 points in 2018

[Gothmog]

18. This makes me smile

19. Just check Tarrant County in person votes 46.13%

And we still have until Friday for early voting.

I'll continue to check throughout the day.

[MissB]

[JCMach1]

24. Huge % of young voters as well... Even if Trump pulls out Texas, it will be a bloodbath for GOP

up and down the ticket.

+5-10 House seats just from TX

[JCMach1]

25. Texas has slipped the bounds of any reasonable modeling
