Quarter of TX Registered Voters Participated in 2020 Presidential Primary

Thanks to Richard Winger of Ballot Access News for this Post.

More than 4 Million Texans Voted in the 2020 Presidential Primary Election, with Turnout among Democratic Voters just barely Surpassing Republican Turnout. There are 16,211,198 Registered Voters, only 4,084,431 Voted in the Presidential Primary, or just 25.2%.

Texas uses an Open Primary system, meaning Voters can Decide at the Polls whether they want to Vote in the Democratic or Republican Contest.

With All Polling Places Tallied, Democrats had cast 2,076,046 Votes and Republicans cast 2,008,385 Votes, in the Presidential Contest.

Overall, a Small Majority of Votes, 2,071,745 came during Early Voting, and 2,012,686 were Cast on Election day, according to the Texas Secretary of State’s Office.

Turnout for Both Parties was around the Same for the Presidential Contest in the 2020 Primary. Though more Republican Votes had come in during Early Voting, the Overall Democratic Vote Total was Higher than the Republican Total by Less than a Percentage Point after Election day.

These Vote Tallies remain Unofficial. County Election Officials are still Processing Mail-In Ballots that were Postmarked by Election day and Working through which Provisional Ballots will be Counted.
