Texas has seen the highest voter turnout among youth voters across the U.S. as Democrats are seeking to win the state for the first time in over 40 years.
According to new data released by the Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) at Tufts University, at least 493,314 early votes or absentee ballots have been cast in Texas among residents between the ages of 18 and 29.
"As of October 21, more than 3 million young people (ages 18–29) have already voted early or absentee in the 2020 elections, including more than 2 million in 14 key states that may well decide the presidency and control of the United States Senate," Tufts researchers wrote with their analysis.
The researchers also note that "early votes by youth in Texas are likely much higher," as data is only available for 23 counties in the state, which accounts for 65 percent of the state's population.
