Texans headed to the polls on Tuesday to decide which Democrats and Republicans they wanted to see on the November ballot in several key congressional, legislative and local races. After several tight races took place, the results are in.

Some of the polls across the state were met with some inconveniences and technical difficulties. Polls were to be closed at 7 p.m. However, they remained open in Dallas County as 90 out of the county's 282 polling locations experienced power outages. Voters were also directed to other polling locations all day.
