Texas finishes early voting with 46% of registered voters voting. In 2012 it was 39.4%.

For comparison:

Edit: though I'm confused - are these totals just the counties highlighted in the table?

Singularly awful turnout rates from El Paso and the Rio Grande Valley

Huh? El Paso County had 96,189 early votes at this time in 2012 for a 2.82% share of the total statewide early voting. This year, it's at 150,446, for a share of 3.35%. That's a pretty substantial increase.

There are substantial increases in the early turnout of ultra-GOP suburbs like Collin as well. But Travis is notable.
