According to a story published earlier this week by The Texas Tribune, voter turnout records are being shattered state-wide. Clearly, something is amiss. Is it Trump love? Trump hate? Hillary love? Hillary hate? Hard to say, but clearly, voters are ticked off at some one or some thing. In Hidalgo County, clearly Proposition 1 (creation of a Healthcare District) being placed on the ballot, based on the number of people heard talking about it, must have something to do with the sizeable turnout. Yet, anyone who can tell you how the vote is going to turn out is still guessing.
