Questions and confusion over voting in the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate delayed results, with State Rep. James Talarico projected as the winner. Changes to primary voting rules in two counties created confusion for voters. The confusion led to polls remaining open until 9 p.m., two hours past their scheduled close, and two precincts in Williamson County also staying open late due to Democratic efforts. The Texas Supreme Court stayed the judge's decision to separate the ballots cast by those not in line at 7 p., but it remains uncertain whether these ballots will actually be counted.
