If you haven't voted yet, today's the day. Central Texas voters are deciding federal, statewide and local contests in the Nov. 3 midterm. In Bell County, more than 80,000 residents have already voted early, and officials expect another 30,000-plus voters today. We suggest going early and checking the county's list of polling locations first.
