Texas Senate primary results delayed as Dallas County voting irregularities spark legal battles. U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett, a frontrunner for the Democratic nomination, declared Tuesday night’s election against State Rep. James Talarico would not yield a winner due to confusion over new Republican-backed rules rerouting voters to specific precincts.

Crockett, a civil rights attorney and first-time Senate candidate, accused GOP officials of targeting Black and Hispanic communities, citing hundreds turned away from polls. “People have been disenfranchised,” she said, emphasizing provisional ballots cast after 7 p.m. CT were later invalidated by a court order. The chaos underscores tensions in Texas, where Democrats seek to reclaim ground in a state that hasn’t elected a Democrat to the Senate since 1993.
