Early voting totals in District 2 runoff mirroring numbers seen during December election

El Pasoans were able to vote on 14 proposed Texas constitution amendments at various locations like UTEP and public libraries on Nov. 7, 2023

Early voting has come to a close for the El Paso City Council District 2 runoff election.

Early voting kicked off Wednesday, Jan. 3, and ran through Tuesday, Jan. 16. Early voting sites were closed on Monday, Jan. 15, in observance of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday.

Election Day will be Saturday, Jan. 20, with polls open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

The special election in December garnered abysmally low numbers, with only 4.5% of registered voters in District 2 turning out to cast ballots.

After 13 days of early voting, the number of ballots cast in the runoff election are slightly ahead of the totals seen at the same period during the District 2 special election. In all, 1,183 voters have cast ballots during the early voting session in the runoff election.

These numbers above do not include mail-in ballots. Mail-in ballot daily numbers are listed below.
