In our little town, I was one of two people voting at 11:00 this morning. Kinda surprised.

But by the time I left there was a line out the door.

Anecdotal evidence indicates that so far Trump supporters are lining up to vote and Hillary supporters are staying home.

We will have a better indication if that is the case nationwide if the Hillary campaign goes into hysteric panic mode tonight.

Update from Katy, Tx.:

The polling station next to the office has run out of parking spaces. Cars are circling the lot looking for a spot. People are parking in other parking lots and walking in to vote. We have a two story parking garage and I bet it is full.

Never seen it like this before.

I am in San Antonio...Bexar County. We worked really hard with the Get Out the Vote org. Esp West side San Antonio which is predominately hispanic. They promised to vote and seemed enthusiastic. We are providing transportation and informed them what they needed in order to vote. I have not been to any of the precincts but shall call soon and see what the turnout has been.

The radio is saying the Harris County is seeing about 10,000 voters per hour coming through the precincts. This is a record pace.

Reporting from Arlington (Tarrant Co. Texas) at the Pioneer Pkwy. early voting location. I arrived around 10:30 AM, and there were two voting lines with about 50 people each. Many more who entered turned around and left hoping for a smaller crowd later.

My impression of the voters was that it “looked” like about 70-75% Trump, with lots of older white people and some Junior Leaguer-types. There were three Hispanic and two black voters in line. Of the potential Hillary voters, most were old women with beehives who looked like they’ve voted Democrat their whole lives. But, I could be wrong.

Over all, I’ve never seen such a crowd for early voting, or election day voting for that matter. Ordinarily, I’d just walk in and vote. As I left, there were many vehicles driving around because parking spaces were at a premium. Thus, as lunch time approached I suspect that the turnout intensified even more.

I haven’t ventured out to our polling station nearby here in Georgetown. I’m sure it’s packed though, based on the reports I’m getting from neighbors.

There is no way in hell Clinton will come close to taking Texas legitimately.

I had planned to vote this morning, but my wife told me to wait until tomorrow to avoid some of the first day crowds.

I agree. It is close but I do not think she will take the state.

I am in Round Rock and this will be the first time I do early voting and my first time voting in Texas since I moved from California.

I do not know what to expect.

At my polling location in North Texas, on primary day, the line was out the building, and 100ft beyond. Took about 2 hours to vote. No one was upset by it, just bemused. The democrat polling location had no line at all. I think it’s safe to say that my town will go overwhelmingly for Trump.

The whacked libs and their sancuary votersof Austin will dominate Travis County. There is no way in hell Williamson County or Texas oberall goes to Clinton- not without some seriously massive voter fraud.

It is next to impossible to have voter fraud in Texas. We have 264 counties...all run by Republicans. In San Antonio, we have 43 precincts. We have Republicans and Democrats both at all to prevent it but we have never had a problem. If one wants to commit voter fraud, Texas is not the place to try it.

Everyone wear RED on Election Day.

Then take a picture of the lines, to document how many people are wearing red (so they can’t steal the vote).

Spread the word.

Also, lots of first-time voters. They may not know you can’t wear Trump-gear at the polls, so spread that info as well. Wearing RED is ok, but no Trump logo/name gear.
