“We have absolutely no freaking idea what’s going to happen... hence the anxiety.”
Let me look up the link to the Texas Secretary of State’s tally board and you can see the results come in there in every county in the state. Each county must report at certain times on election night. The election administrator or county clerk must call in results at those times - the first numbers you will see there will be the early voting tallies. You can watch your country or other counties come in or you can watch them by the state total which is likely what you want to know - the overall count in the state. Let me find that and I’ll post it on this thread to you.

The link to election night results is below. If you stay on this page and click “Submit” at the bottom, you will get state wide results. You see there is a place to select a county if you want and get that county’s result, then hit “Submit”. There are no county offices results, only county results for state races and district races.
Complete early voting results will come in fairly soon after 7:00 pm because those have already been counted by probably 5:00 pm. Ballots by mail are put into early voting numbers and those mail ballots are usually counted by 5 pm. and added to polling place early voting totals they already have.
