New statistics released by the Texas Secretary of State show that nearly 24,636 mail-in ballots statewide were rejected, a rate of 12.38%.
- Mary Crabb and her sister Julie Philp say they were frustrated and disappointed that after voting by mail for 15 years, they couldn't do so during the March 1st primary.
In all, the Secretary of State's Office said there were a record 3,029,773 total ballots cast during the March 1 primary. During an exclusive interview Wednesday, Texas Secretary of State John Scott said the primary reason for the rejections is voters didn't comply with the new state law's ID requirements.
The Secretary of State's Office is now trying to determine how many people whose ballots were rejected did ultimately get to vote.
