show morePrimary election day in Brazos County means 25 voting centers are open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.
Elections administrator Trudy Hancock says there is one location change. Due to construction, the center that has been at College Station's Christ United Methodist Church was moved to Living Hope church.
Early voting drew 9,140 voters. There were 7295 Republicans and 1845 Democrats.
Mail ballots were sent to 1,001 Republicans and 612 Democrats. Hancock says 622 Republican mail ballots and 393 democratic mail ballots were returned that complied with new state identification laws.
For those who returned mail ballots that have not complied, Hancock's staff and the county's ballot board have been reaching out to those voters.
Hancock says she has had heartbreaking stories from voters who are homebound and can not leave to come to the office to fix ballots. She hopes the mail is fast enough for those voters to receive new ballots and get them returned by the state deadline of March 7.
