Ballots cast at the same point: early vote + mail
Early votes in person plus mail ballots returned, through the first nine days of early voting in each year (the same number of days before Election Day).
Ballots by ZIP code
Hover or tap a ZIP for its numbers; tap again to filter the dashboard to it.
ZIP shapes are 2020 Census ZIP Code Tabulation Areas, trimmed to the county line, with major freeways and tollways for reference (I-35 splits into 35E and 35W at Denton), so ZIPs that cross into Collin, Dallas, Tarrant, Wise or Cooke counties show only their Denton part. Early and mail voters are placed by the ZIP on their roster address; past elections by the ZIP that holds most of the precinct's 2026 early voters. ZIPs with few ballots can show extreme shading.
Ballots by the lean of the voter's precinct
Denton County's rosters don't show party, so this groups precincts by how they voted in the March 2026 primaries: the Democratic share of the primary ballots cast there (Strong R under 35%, Lean R 35–50%, Lean D 50–65%, Strong D 65% and up). Countywide, 48.5% of March primary ballots were Democratic. Bars show each group's share of ballots so far, and of an estimate of 2024 at the same point; the lines below say how each group's pace compares with 2024. Only precincts that also existed in 2024 are counted here. These describe neighborhoods, not individual voters.
ZIP codes
Every ZIP with at least 25 ballots in 2026, most ballots first. Tap a row to filter the dashboard to it. Turnout is the share of registered voters who have voted so far; Dem % and Rep % are the Democratic and Republican shares of the ZIP's March 2026 primary ballots (the neighborhood, not these voters).

Top precincts in Denton County
Up to 25 county voting precincts by ballots cast. Each precinct sits in one ZIP here: the ZIP where most of its early voters live. vs 2024 is an estimate (the precinct's final 2024 early and mail totals scaled to the county's same-point share); Dem % and Rep % are the Democratic and Republican shares of the precinct's March 2026 primary ballots. A high mail count usually points to a senior-living community.

How this was built
Sources: Denton County's daily in-person early-voting roster through Oct 27, 2026 (the first nine days of early voting) and its returned mail ballot roster, for the Nov 3 general, from the Elections Administration's Early Voting and Election Day Rosters page. A voter on both lists counts once, as an early voter; a voter listed twice counts once. The early-vote roster is a running list with no vote dates, so everything on it counts as cast by Oct 27. Mail ballots are counted as listed on the county's roster that day.
Denton County doesn't post rosters for past elections, so every comparison with 2022 and 2024 rests on counts, not voters. Countywide, same-point figures for 2022 and 2024 come from the Secretary of State's early-voting archive: early votes through the first nine days (Oct 29, 2024; Nov 1, 2022) plus mail ballots received by then. For a ZIP or precinct, 2022 and 2024 are estimates: each precinct's final early and mail votes in the top race (President in 2024, Governor in 2022) from the county's official results, scaled to the share of the county's final total that had come in by this point (about four-fifths of the 2024 early vote and three-quarters of its mail). That assumes each area voted on the county's schedule; areas that vote early or late will read high or low.
Early and mail voters are placed in ZIPs by the address on the roster (the registration address for mail voters). Each precinct's past totals are placed in the ZIP where most of the precinct's 2026 early voters live; about one precinct in six has more than a tenth of its early voters in a second ZIP. Precinct numbers are matched across years as published (the roster's six-digit precinct is the four-digit precinct plus a split); 11 precincts were created for 2026, mostly in fast-growing areas, and their 2024 votes sit in the precincts they came from, so a ZIP's 2024 estimate can be off where that crosses ZIP lines. Registration by ZIP is March 2026 registration by precinct, scaled to the county's 688,032 registered voters for November. The southern suburbs are the 15 ZIPs below Lewisville Lake: Lewisville, Flower Mound, Highland Village, Carrollton, The Colony, Coppell, Trophy Club and Roanoke, and the Denton parts of Southlake, Keller, Haslet and far north Fort Worth.
There is no party breakdown of voters: Denton's rosters don't show which primary anyone took, and its primary rosters aren't online. Lean is a neighborhood measure: the Democratic share of the votes cast for U.S. Senate (counting blank and spoiled ballots) in a precinct's March 2026 Democratic and Republican primaries (48.5% countywide). Party colors follow each party's logo: Democratic blue and Republican red.
