32. Jury will be heavily Democratic in Travis County

Austin, being a well-known liberal stronghold, does have many Republicans, but most criminal trial juries have been heavily Democratic, with a fairly good representation of women and minorities.

It will be interesting to see how DeGuerin does his voir dire and manages his peremptory challenges (he will be allowed six among 24 names toward a 12-person panel).
