Election Results

Result reports for every election Caldwell County conducts are published by the Elections Office — election-night summaries first, then the canvassed record. Vote totals always trace back to the source report, so any figure can be checked against the original.

Unofficial results are released on election night as ballots are counted. They include early voting, ballots by mail received in time, and Election Day totals — but not ballots still being resolved, such as provisional ballots and mail ballots that may still legally arrive. Unofficial totals can change.

Official results are produced after the canvass, when the Commissioners Court or the appropriate authority formally reviews and certifies the count. The Early Voting Ballot Board first decides which provisional and late-arriving mail ballots count. Official canvassed results are the legal record of the election.

Every result report the county has published is listed by election, newest first, in the result archive — summary reports, precinct-by-precinct reports, reconciliation forms, canvass records, and partial manual counts, back to 2018. Each report appears under the certification its own title states, and each link says what format and how large the file is.

Reports are published as they are released. Start from the result archive; the underlying files are also browsable in the county Document Center under election records. Notices, logic and accuracy testing, sample ballots, and voter rosters are on the notices and documents page. For the certified canvass of a specific contest, contact the Elections Office.

While early voting is under way, the Secretary of State publishes daily early-voting turnout for Texas counties. Turnout is not a result — no votes are counted until the polls close on Election Day.

Caldwell County administers elections for these entities. Each publishes its own official results and canvass records.
