The Latest | Houston, we've had only a few voting problems
An elections official in Houston says voting has largely been going smoothly in the most populous county in Texas. Elections in recent years in Harris County have drawn attention because of problems ranging from paper ballot shortages to malfunctioning machines to long lines. County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth says that problems have arisen in just a few places so far on Super Tuesday. She says those problems have been dealt with. She says she is now taking her “first deep breath for the day knowing that voters are voting, our polls are working, and we’ve been able to address everything.”
