HOUSTON – Voters in Harris County set another early-voting record Wednesday. This time for turnout on the second day of early voting.

According to a tweet from the Harris County Clerk’s Office, there had been 100,000 ballots cast by about 5:20 p.m.

That shattered the previous day-two-early-voting record of 73,542 set in 2016.

This marks the second consecutive day of record-setting voting in Harris County. The county also broke 2016′s turnout record for the first day of early voting on Tuesday with more than 128,000 people voting.

        • And you should pay for an education to help you think independently, instead of simply babbling what your masters have told you.

        • All facts pleb.

      • CNN offers no airtime to New York Post's Hunter Biden report while also skipping Amy Coney Barrett hearing

        • Somebody call you a Waaaaa-bulance.

        • It's because the Republicans are shedding light on their ugly cover ups and hate

      • Lefties getting all excited for the inevitable let down, as usual. Remember Mueller?

        • I will gladly accept PayPal to explain something for you that is available for free on Google (or Bing if you're feeling nasty). Again, it's all out there for you to research on your own though. Just like the poors gotta pick themselves up by their bootstraps? You oughta hit the library ASAP!

        • That’s what I figured.

      • Weird how CH2 won't report on the NY Post article about Hunter Biden hooking up his Ukranian buddies with access to Joe Biden. Weird.

        • Today's news is Hunter negotiating million for him and 'the big guy' AKA Lunchbucket Joe, from China. I guess being pro-criminal, this dovetails nicely with your support of Biden.

          Face it....your guy is an actual crook. 47 years of government service, and now we finally see how he got so rich, owning multiple mansions. How many mansions do YOU own?

        • Nah my fingers like to tap dance -- so I just re-wrote it.

      • It's as if early voting will remove Trump even sooner... I can wait till the lines die down a bit.

        • Trump is MAKING history!

        • There no denying that Trump is making history, alright.

      • That's great. Hopefully most of them voted Biden/Harris.

        • Cute, but the same thing happened in 2016 and we know how that turned out. Talk to me when the dust settles.

          • Bye Don the Con
