AUSTIN (KXAN) — Karen West couldn’t vote before work on Super Tuesday like she planned.

“It was like, wow, this is kind of frustrating, because this is what people have been complaining about with these election machines,” West said.

According to the Travis County Clerk’s Office, there was a data issue countywide, affecting roughly 1% of registered voters on Super Tuesday. It means as many as roughly 8,900 voters may have been impacted, should they all have shown up to vote.

“Our team quickly identified the issue and pushed out a solution. Voters who had an issue while checking in to vote were asked to wait while the solution was implemented and offered the option to vote provisionally if they were unable to wait. As of 10:30 a.m., the issue has been fully resolved.”

KXAN pushed the County Clerk Thursday night for answers on what exactly that data issue was. They say the issue came from a data sync that took place between early voting and Election Day, which happens regularly “to make sure that the voter rolls are most accurate.”

The data error made it so that certain precinct boundaries and precinct assignments didn’t align.

“Those voters became detached from their assigned precincts so when they showed up to vote their name was there but they were not assigned to a precinct which meant they weren’t assigned to a ballot style,” said Dyana Limon-Mercado, the Travis County Clerk.

The Texas GOP tweeted it heard reports of some Republicans being unable to vote due to an update to the voter rolls. The Travis County Clerk said that was the same issue — and that it impacted both parties.

West was eventually able to vote at a different location after work. But the issues left some skeptical.

“For the past two weeks in early voting here in Travis County— especially here in Lago Vista — we didn’t experience any issues that I was aware of, to have this issue pop up on Election Day, just seemed very odd,” voter Jeanette Drake said.

Voters at both Lago Vista High School and Christ Church in Lago Vista dealt with issues, according to voters and officials on site.

KXAN received multiple reports via reportit@kxan.com from viewers across Travis County experiencing voting issues.

KXAN reporter Jala Washington voted around 4:15 p.m. Tuesday, and was met by voters who were still dealing with machine issues at the Austin Rec Center polling location in downtown Austin. According to staff on site, the issue was brief.

“There were outstanding issues that were handled on a case-by-case basis with the voter registrar’s office, with our tax assessor collector,” Limon-Mercado said.
