WilCo reopens vote counting after 69 Republican ballots found

A total of 69 Republican ballots cast on election day, but misplaced and not initially counted, will be tabulated and included in the final canvassed results following a March 12 court order.

What happened: While processing post-election paperwork March 11, the Williamson County Election Department discovered presiding judges at two Republican polling locations misplaced a total of 69 ballots cast on election day, a county spokesperson confirmed in an email.

The ballots, 40 from the Andice Community Center in Florence and 29 from the Cedar Park Randalls, were put in a box of election-related paperwork instead of the ballot box, resulting in them not being counted.

The Republican Party petitioned a Williamson County district judge to reopen the central counting station in order to tabulate these ballots and include them in the final count.

The outcome: Judge Betsy Lambeth granted the motion allowing the Republican Party's central counting station to reopen and count the ballots.
