Early voting is underway across the state and both Tarrant and Dallas counties are seeing a steady stream of voters at the polls.

Dallas Elections Administrator Toni Pippins-Poole says the race for governor is turning out the early voters. 

“In looking at previous historical numbers from a gubernatorial race, the total turnout should be around 38 maybe 40 percent,” she said.

Tarrant County Elections Administrator Frank Phillips also predicts early voter turnout around 40 percent.  

Early voting ends Oct. 31, and a photo ID is required.  Elections officials in Dallas and Tarrant counties have had no reports of complaints or problems with the new voter ID requirement during the first hours of early voting.
