Turnout in primary runoff elections has historically been low, especially during midterm years. Only 8.2% of registered Texas voters cast ballots in the 2022 primary runoffs, according to the Texas secretary of\u00a0state.<\/p>\n
Domestic mail-in ballots turned in<\/a> and postmarked by election day are counted if received by the county by 5 p.m. on May 27. Mail-in ballots from military and overseas voters must be postmarked by election day and received by June 1. When races are close, mail-in voting can influence the results and extend the time it takes to call races. The certification of final election results<\/a> will be completed and released by the Secretary of State on June\u00a010.<\/p>\n The Texas Tribune\u2019s election data is provided by The Associated Press<\/a>, which gathers voting information from the secretary of state\u2019s office, county election sites and stringers on the ground in Texas.
