Original Note:
The number the author cites for early votes in 2018 is only the number of early votes from Texas’s most populous 30 counties (of a total 254 counties), as this was what was reported by the Secretary of State at the time. The 2022 number is for early votes in all 254 counties: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2022/11/05/texas-early-voting-down-significantly-from-2018-midterm-election-final-numbers-show/
