德克萨斯州全州，州务卿办公室初步数据显示，2026年中期选举已有770多万名得州选民提前投票，投票率达40.5%，超过2018年创下的现代中期选举纪录。得州登记选民已超过1900万，比2024年总统大选时增加2.2%。

More Than 7.7 Million Texans Vote Early, Breaking the 2018 Midterm Record With 40.5% Turnout
Across Texas, preliminary figures from the secretary of state's office show more than 7.7 million Texans voted early in the 2026 midterm election, a turnout of 40.5% that surpasses the modern midterm high-water mark set in 2018. More than 19 million Texans are registered to vote, up 2.2% from the November 2024 presidential election.
In-person early voting ended on October 30, while mail ballots continue to arrive; the secretary of state's figures are not final and counties report at different speeds. In the 2024 presidential election about 9 million Texans voted early, a 49% turnout rate; in the 2022 midterms about 5.5 million voted early, a 31% rate.
In the marquee races, Democratic state Representative James Talarico and Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton are locked in a tight contest for a U.S. Senate seat, and Democratic state Representative Gina Hinojosa is challenging Republican Governor Greg Abbott, who is seeking a fourth term. Election Day is Tuesday, November 3.
