In the 2020 election there were 16,955,519 registered voters in Texas according to the Texas Secretary of State website. Of that, 66.73% voted for a total of 11,315,056 votes cast in the election that year. Of those that voted, 11,149,473 cast a vote for president, with 5,890,347 voting for Trump and 5,259,126 voting for Biden. This is a difference of 631,221 votes. This year, 18,623,931 people are registered in Texas. If 66.73% of voters vote again this year, 12,427,750 voters would cast a vote. Assuming the same percentage of people in 2020 who voted also failed to cast a vote for president (98.54% voted for president), 12,246,305 people will vote for president. That is an increase of 1,096,832 people voting for president from 2020 to 2024. Now this is making assumptions all the numbers stay the same (they won’t), but the increase in voters is more than the difference in votes between Trump and Biden. Enthusiasm is at an all time high right now, and we are seeing surges in voter registration across the country, and record setting early voting numbers which tend to skew democratic. All this in mind, there is a good chance that Harris could be even closer to winning Texas than Biden was in 2020, or she may even clinch victory there. Obviously not all new voters will vote for Harris, but Texas is slowly, every election, becoming more and more blue. At the very least, this is a good sign for things to come, and will give Allred an edge of Cruz this year as well given recent polling and the numbers we are seeing. I hope the people of Texas make the right choice this year and vote for Allred and Harris!
