OK, this is a WHOLE mess.

The Texas Supreme Court rescinded the extended voting time period after some of those people cast votes.

Its sounds like there's may be some competing lawsuits filed in the morning and for now those extended voting ballots will be put aside and not counted.

Local Dallas news was able to find voters who were actively trying to locate their polling locations.

IMAGINE needing to get back to work but waiting in a possibly hours long line at the poll you've been going to a for a decade only to be told that you're at the wrong place!

The websites didn't work during the election today and even the night before diligent voters had no idea their location had changed.

Dallas has always been known for "Voting While Black" problems. For this election the Republicans changed where polling locations would be setup in predominately Black neighborhoods.

Typically they also severely under provision voters, causing many people to wait in lines for HOURS after the official close of polling.
