South Texas Turnout

avatar

Clinton's GOTV efforts in South Texas were phenomenal, though whether this is just a reflection her popularity or "Box 13" style South Texas shenanigans is impossible to know.  In Duval County, Hillary got 77% of the vote on turnout close to 50% of registered voters -- primary totals as high as the Texas Sec. of State has ever recorded for a general election.  In Jim Hogg County, she got 76% of the vote, again with close to 50% turnout (and setting a record for votes cast in any election).  In Maverick County, she took 72% of the 9,963 votes cast (0 votes went to GOP primary candidates), again close to an all-time turnout record.  LBJ would be proud.
