Ballots and scanning machines arrive at central counting after polls close in Houston on Nov. 8, 2022.
Paxton filed a mandamus Monday afternoon to the state Supreme Court asking it to disregard the votes because they were cast after the usual deadline to arrive at the polls. The conflict is a result of the 2,000 voters in Harris County who arrived in line between 7 p.m. and 8 p.m., an hour aftersays voters are allowed to cast their ballots. In this instance, a judge on election night ordered all polling locations in Harris County to allow people to vote until 8 p.m.
As a result of the court order, those who got in line after 7 p.m. were still allowed to vote on Election Day but had to cast a provisional ballot.
