A Harris County election staffer runs a report on a ballot scanning machine after it came in to the Harris County Election Technology Center Wednesday, March 2, 2022 in Houston.Even with help from constable's offices, Harris County again was the last of the state’s largest counties to finish counting Saturday’s election results, turning its final tally to the Texas Secretary of State’s office after 9:30 Sunday morning.
Outgoing Elections Administrator Isabel Longoria announced her resignation following a botched March primary election. The county took 30 hours to finish counting and then two days later announced it found 10,000 ballots that had not been included in its final vote count. Longoria took the blame for the miscues and resigned days later. Her resignation takes effect July 1.
The county's elections office boosted its staff on Election Day by bringing in employees from most constable's offices, along with Harris County employees across several divisions who were available to help, Hakim said. The process, she said, went smoothly.
