Dallas County GOP will agree to countywide voting sites after primary election chaos
Dallas County Republicans will agree to allow voters to cast ballots at countywide voting sites for the May 26 runoff election after a switch to precinct-based voting sites caused chaos, the county party chair said Tuesday.
Dallas County Republican Chair Allen West supported the use of precinct-based sites earlier this month, but said using precincts again for the runoff would expose the county party to “increased risk and voter confusion” because the county is planning to use countywide sites for upcoming municipal elections and early voting.
“To then shift for the one day runoff election to precincts would bring about large scale disruption,” West said in a statement.
That’s what critics say resulted from the Dallas GOP’s decision to use precinct sites on Election Day for the primary on March 3.
