I combined into one spreadsheet various pieces of info on the Texas Secretary of State website:
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
Includes number of votes cast so far in each county — as a share of the 2016 vote, & a share of all RVs.
Also 2016/2018 results in each, & electorate growth.

What it shows so far: Some populous Dems counties are voting a bit above statewide average as a share of past elections (Travis, Harris, Hidalgo, El Paso), as are some swing counties that voted for Beto in 2018 (Nueces, Williamson). But so are MANY ruby red conservative counties.
Which is to say, big turnout in Houston or Austin doesn't tell a story of asymmetry here.
But there's an overall story of energy that's noteworthy even if doesn't say much about result.
(If people discern other patterns in data let us know!)

What info supplied by the Texas SoS looks like right now (with a caveat that some counties may not be updating as quickly as others). On left all counties; on right, counties with more than 100K registered voters.
