Here's what to know before voting on primary election day in WilCo

Election day for the Democratic and Republican primaries is March 3. Williamson County voters will use precinct-specific polling locations on election day, with election results expected to be delayed due to other countywide changes, County Elections Administrator Bridgette Escobedo said.

What you need to know: The local Republican and Democratic parties determine election day procedures for primaries. This year, the Williamson County Republican Party opted for precinct-specific polling locations, which in turn requires the local Democratic Party to follow suit.

There are 177 voting precincts in Williamson County. The two local parties decided not to operate a joint election, meaning there are party-specific polling locations.

Both parties will combine some precincts, resulting in 55 Republican polling locations and 42 Democratic polling locations.

What else? Residents can check the county voter precinct map to identify which precinct they are in. Updated precincts went into effect Jan. 1. The county election page has links to specific polling locations for each election by precinct and party.
