Voting Trends

Looking through our county (Galveston) votes here: https://results.enr.clarityelections.com/TX/Galveston/106269/web.264614/#/summary and one can see slight traces of the overall national trend even in this mostly red county.

1. More people voted for the presidential election than the senator race 2. Even with less total votes, the Republican Senator took in more votes than the Republican President. So folks stayed true to their party on senate race, but quite a few have voted the other way in presidential race. 3. Mail in votes are significantly higher for democrats (60:40) while in person votes are significantly higher for republicans. Notes: - Data as of Thursday, November 5, 2020, 1:21:02 PM - votes may still be getting tallied - Unofficial results - has not gone through their full audits/checks & balances.
