PERMIAN BASIN--Staff at the Midland County Election's Annex says the phones have been ringing off the hook all day Monday.
   
They've also seen a flood of people coming in thinking they could vote Monday, but unfortunately that's not that case as early voting is over, and the official election day isn't until Tuesday.
   
But check out these numbers:

We're told close to 32,000 people showed up for early voting in Midland, and close to 22,000 residents took part in early voting in Odessa.
   
The elections administrator in Odessa is also predicting  an additional 15,000 more voters to show up at the polls on Tuesday.
   
The polls open tomorrow at 7 in the morning until 7 at night on Tuesday.
   
But, you can only vote at your official precinct.

If you're unsure where your designated location is you can find the links to both the Midland and Odessa elections websites here:
