ALLEN, Texas — Things didn't go completely smooth for some in Collin County on Super Tuesday -- particularly at one voting location, which saw some waiting for more than an hour in line to vote, even after the 7 p.m. deadline.
At the Allen Municipal Building, the line was wrapped around the building at one point with voters.
However, the Collin County Elections Administrator Bruce Sherbet said that by 8 p.m., the lines were almost gone. Sherbet said that location in particular is always one of the busiest on election days -- but, he reiterated, everyone who gets in line by 7 p.m. will still get to cast a vote, as is dictated by law.
By 7:20 p.m., the administrator said 54,076 people had voted in person in Collin County on Super Tuesday, with several hundred more votes still to be cast.
More than 80,000 people voted early in Collin County, Sherbet said, which represents about an 18.9% voter turnout. That collection was made up of about 60% early votes and 40% who voted on Tuesday, Sherbet added.
There are a number of hot races in Collin County this Super Tuesday, including the Democratic primary to determine who will attempt to take Colin Allred's place as the U.S. Representative for Texas' 32nd District.
