Hey Deport,

You seem to know a little about the numbers.
Have a question for you.

At the start of the reporting, the percent of voters vs
registered was 2.06%. That number has now changed to about
3.5%.
Wouldn’t that number be consistent?
Wouldn’t the state know how many votes were cast, even before
who voted for who comes in?
Why would that percent change? Could there be hanky panky going on?

Yep they have a breakfast menu. I am going back tomorrow too lol. I would buy the stuff right now even if I did not like it just to show support! It was actually pretty good though.

When this race first started I thought Cruz didn’t have a prayer because of name recognition.The runoff gave me hope..and that hope grew as the race progressed...
I look forward to voting a third time for Cruz in November.

For those of us late to the party, who is the Dem and does Cruz stand a chance?

Voted for Cruz this morning and then topped it off with breakfast at Chick Fil A!

That is exactly how my morning went.

Yes, even the Texas Dems don’t know who their guy is. Whoever wins tonight will win in November.

Does Chick-Fill-A have a breakfast menu?

Not only do they serve breakfast, but if you find a Dwarf House, they will serve you pancakes.

Scanning down through the TX SoS results “by county” - there are quite a few small counties (20 or fewer precincts) that have all precincts reported.

It appears that in those counties, the percent of registered voters who turned out is about 10-12%. If that holds true for other counties, the total vote tonight will be on the order of 1.4Million.

Whoever wins the GOP Runoff will win the seat. The November election will be a formality.
