Voter turnout in Central Texas Tuesday was low.

Voter turnout in Central Texas Tuesday was low, as expected.

Election officials hoped for 10 percent turnout, but that wasn't even met statewide and in several counties.

"No, I was the only one whenever I went in there," voter Susan Fawcett said.

There were plenty of people passing by polling places Tuesday, but not a whole lot who stopped in.

"There were two people voting inside when I came, about six more came while I was in there. So it's better than zero," voter Jim Marston said.

For those who did come out to vote, they said any election day, they're pretty faithful.

"I think it's important everybody vote every time. I hate people who complain about the system but don't take 15 minutes to come over here and let their voice be heard. So I always try to vote," Marston said.

Even being able to say you helped change the Texas Constitution couldn't create a crowd.

Maybe that's because it's been amended 456 times -- not counting this election's 11 changes.

Others just said it took a little extra effort.

"I read all the amendments listed in the paper and studied each one and brought my notes with me," Fawcett said.

For those planning on sending a child to college in the next decade, Tuesday's voters are to be thanked for what could be more tier one university choices in Texas.

Voters also can be praised for giving Texans the right to step foot on a Gulf beach because it's now in the Constitution that they'll remain public.

As far as voter turnout--hopefully Central Texas will have better luck next year.
