Election results in Tarrant County will be released in batches on election night.

Early voting results are expected by 7:15 p.m., followed by updates on the hour starting at 9 p.m. It could be late into the night or early Wednesday morning before all the Election Day votes are tallied and reported in Tarrant County.

One note: Votes will also likely continue to be tallied after Election Day. Mail in ballots can be received through 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 6, as long as they are postmarked by the time polls close at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

The deadline to receive mail-in ballots is even later for those coming from overseas and from military members. Provisional ballots will also continue to be tallied in the days after the election.

Election results for Tarrant County races will be posted on the Election Administration website. If a race spans more than one county, check results on the Texas Secretary of State’s website.
