WilCo requests more ballot boxes due to significant voter turnout

WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas - Election Day is one week from Tuesday, but many Texans are taking advantage of early voting.

Due to a significant increase in voter turnout, and a problem with their vendor, Williamson County has requested additional ballot boxes.

"Our residents are enthusiastic, and they're out, and they're letting their voice be heard through early voting," said Bill Gravell, Williamson County Judge.

There’s no shortage of early voters in Williamson County.

The Williamson County Elections Administrator says it's seen extraordinary turn out the first week of early voting.

It was close though.

The one thing I see as a problem is the new ballot boxes. You know no matter what the gop will be going after them for not using the same ones even though they were approved.
