Texas 2026 Primary Night: Hand Counts and Slow Reporting Ahead of Official Results

TL;DR Summary
Voters will get unofficial results soon after polls close at 7 p.m., but official tallies depend on counting late, mail, and provisional ballots. Large counties may report slowly and some, like Gillespie and Eastland, are using hand counts. Texas law requires submitting results within 24 hours after polls close, with final official results to be canvassed by mid-March, though election-night projections will cover the vast majority of ballots.
