All 7 of the proposed Texas Constitutional Amendments passed yesterday in the Texas Election. The Texas Tribune stated that state-wide voter turnout took a nose-dive with only around 5 percent of the states registered voters showing up to vote. Here in Austin County our voter turnout was right in line with a paltry 4.67% of registered voters showing up to vote.
