Finally it’s primary election day
Tuesday, March 1, 2022 by Jo Clifton
We at the Austin Monitor know that our readers are extremely busy and maybe didn’t get around to voting early. Only 9.59 percent of Travis County’s registered voters cast their primary ballots early. With only 58,865 Democrats and 23,511 Republicans marking their ballots either by mail or in person during the early voting period, it seems fairly certain that some people who intended to vote early just didn’t get around to it. Today is your day. Find a list of polling places and other helpful information here.
