Harris County, with almost 3 million voters registered, lagged behind most large counties...
following the introduction of a Republican-backed change to mail ballot ID requirements, state data shows.Nearly 25,000 mail ballots were rejected in Texas primaries, fueled by confusion over new rule
Remi Garza, the elections administrator for Cameron County and president of the Texas Association of Elections Administrators, said he was pleased to see the decrease statewide . But at the same time, he said he still sees room for improvement. Counties reported that many of the problems with rejections in the primaries came as a result of voters either including the wrong number or forgetting to include one altogether. During those primary elections, more than 24,000, or 12 percent, of mail ballots were thrown out across the state.
Harris County, the state's largest county with almost 3 million voters registered, lagged behind most large counties with about 4.5 percent of ballots tossed. Dallas County's rejection rate was 1.76 percent, per the state data. At least two other large counties had higher rates than Harris — Fort Bend at 5 percent and Bell at 5.5 percent.
