The rally was not well attended http://juanitajean.com/oh-my-goodness-2/
Give me a few minutes to catch my breath and figure out some numbers but yesterday broke all records of first day voting in Texas. People actually stood in line.
Beto came to three different area of the county in two days and drew enormous crowds. The funniest tweet I saw was from Police Chief Art Acevedo in Houston over Trumps rally for Ted Cruz. Trump kept telling people that 100,000 people asked for tickets to the arena that holds 18,000. By 5:30, the Chief wasnt seeing it.
