Some students are informed and
ready to hit the polls today — others
not so much.
Today is Election Day and students are deciding whether to use
their voice based on the issues the
state currently faces.
“I’m not registered to vote and
do not know much
of what’s going on,”
business management sophomore
Jessica Villagomez
said.
“For now I really just go with the
flow.
And since I’m not voting, if
things change, there’s not much I can
do about it.
”
Based on several political polls,
Texas will remain Republican after
Tuesday, said Allan
Saxe, political science
associate professor.
“Gov.
Perry will defeat Mayor Bill White
by a comfortable margin,” Saxe said.
“Most
political polls believe that the Republicans will gain control of the
U.
S.
House of Representatives, but
not the U.
S.
Senate.
