So far, Denton County’s early voting turnout far ahead of 2016 pace

After two days of early voting in Denton County, the turnout has nearly doubled what it was in the first two days of early voting in the 2016 general election.

According to the county, 35,944 Denton County residents cast their ballots on Tuesday, a single-day record, up from 16,955 on Day 1 of early voting in 2016. On Wednesday, 33,842 Denton County residents voted, up from 19,306 on Day 2 of early voting in 2016.

In addition to being a highly contentious presidential election, this election includes all local races that were originally scheduled for May, but were delayed because of the coronavirus pandemic. Voters will cast ballots for national, state, county and city races ahead of and on Election Day, Nov. 3.
