Early voted in Houston - 1 hour 15 minute wait in line

[TexasBushwhacker]

In at 4:30, out at 5:50. 20 machines. The line moved pretty quickly, so that gives you an idea of just how long it was. It snaked through several rooms at a community center that's NOT on a major street. Nothing wonky with voting straight D - no vote flipping. Quite a few young people. I congratulated and shook hands with first timers. GO BETO!!!

1. K&R

2. What kind of precinct is it?

3. West side of Houston is pretty mixed

Probably more Asians than other parts of town. Since it's early voting anyone living in Harris County could vote there. The county generally goes light blue.

6. Was it at Trini?

7. Ha! Same here. Lizzie and Beto!

A bit further out on South Fry.

My husband and I cast ours last friday afternoon.. picked 2:30 so it would be quick.. was still a 30 minute line. Have NEVER had any wait at this early station just off of Mason before.

So hopeful.

4. It's amazing how long the wait times are in areas the

Republicans don't want people to vote. For those in areas with long waits, we support you and you patience.

It's to save the nation, give it your all and do some fun stuff to pad the time.

5. Heavy turnout and young people and Asian Americans all look good

For democrats.

Trump is doing all he can give democrats the election.

9. HEAR HEAR!! GO BETO!!!

Large turnout in North Tx and Panhandle as well. I'm cautiously hopeful.
Forgot to mention my kiddo down in Austin says lines were long on campus as well. Lots of Beto signs all over Austin as well.

8. Where I am now I've never been on line for more than about a minute or two, but back in 1992....

....when I first voted for Bill Clinton, the line was about an hour, maybe longer.

I felt great afterward.

10. So who did you vote for? lol great news

[Ligyron]

11. I salute your tenacity, but that is ridiculous.

Every state should have vote by mail. I will never stand in a line again.

12. Looks like some records will be broken. Great! n/t

13. Go! Go! Beto!

Lovely rhyme!

14. Great!

Thanks for the report.

15. I voted in Oregon

Glad to hear about everyone gettin out to vote. Maybe we will make a huge blue wave!

I sat at the kitchen table to vote with the State voters pamphlet and union suggestions.
Read each item carefully, marked my ballot and then put it in the mail.

We got motor voter and all mail in ballots, (There are drop off locations also) Who wants to wait in line?

We are about 98% Blue state!

Sounds like great energy!

18. In Fort Worth, it was about 30 minutes.

Very diverse crowd, very excited. I was happy to see about 1/3 of the folks waiting were millennials, too.

The only thing that disappointed me were the pages full of unopposed R judges.

19. I voted on the 2nd day of early voting at the same predominately minorty

early voting site I always go to. The big difference this time was the lack of Republican volunteers for the Republicans on the ballot. We are a Red county and they are always well represented at every polling place. Not this year!

22. Our weather is way too unpredictable

I actually postponed til today because we had a tornado warning on Wednesday.

23. It was 40 minutes yesterday in central Austin

at 2 p.m. in a Hispanic supermarket according to a tweet. A phenomenal turnout - mostly college-age people, many Hispanics. Previous elections had maybe 5-10 people in line on the last day of early voting.
