Turnout projections for county seem to be panning out

If you call the McLennan County Elections Office, the elections administrator Kathy Van Wolfe herself picks up the phone on the first ring.

She’s been answering voter phone calls since 5:30 this morning.

“It seems like I’ve been here forever,” Van Wolfe joked. “Is it the afternoon yet?”

The phones are ringing off the hook, she said. Callers overwhelmingly have the same question: Where do I go to vote?

Other calls have been from polling place judges calling to check voter registrations and voters checking their registrations.

The reports she is receiving from polling places suggest that the expected high voter turnout is happening.

“It’s just fast and furious,” she said. “I think everybody is out voting today.”
