Judge orders extended polling hours for Texas Democratic primary amid confusion

A Dallas County judge extended voting hours for Democratic polling sites until 9 p.m. on primary Election Day due to widespread confusion among voters about their designated polling locations. Many voters in Dallas and Williamson counties faced challenges as they were turned away or had to cast provisional ballots at incorrect sites. The confusion stemmed from a change to precinct-based voting, contrasting with previous elections that allowed countywide voting. Local officials and politicians are monitoring the situation as concerns grow over voter access.
