In a special meeting of the Parker County Commissioners Court [View Commissioners Court video], Elections Administrator Crickett Miller clarified what happened on May 24, the day of the primary runoff elections for the Democrat and Republican parties in the county.
When the results were originally posted online, there was a discrepancy. A total of 2,070 votes had not been tabulated from seven polling places. Miller said the problem was fixed immediately the next morning.
Dr. Laura Pressley*, founder of True Texas Elections and a self-proclaimed expert witness on electronic election fraud, disputed Miller’s time as to when the additional results were tabulated.
* "Dr. Laura Pressley is a former candidate for the Austin City Council in 2014. In 2019, Dr. Pressley prevailed in a historic election integrity case in the Texas Supreme Court and she will be discussing her case and the legal precedent that now impacts all candidates in Texas. She contested her 2014 election results and discovered evidence of electronic voting corruption in Travis County and that Travis and many Texas counties are not following state laws with regard to backup records to validate electronic voting results. In her Texas Supreme Court case, Dr. Pressley cited constitutional ballot numbering violations associated with electronic voting machines in Texas. Supporting her claims, Attorney General Ken Paxton's office submitted an Amicus Curiae Brief to the Texas Supreme Court confirming the serious issues Dr. Pressley raised in her case.
"The Texas Supreme Court supported Dr. Pressley's claims that vote tabulation irregularities and illegalities in her election had legal merit and were evidence that could be used by future candidates contesting election results. For the first time, the Texas Supreme Court said that evidence such as corruption error messages recorded by computerized central accumulator tabulation audit logs, the absence of backup records such as zero and results tapes, statistical data analyses, and other technical records may be raised in an election contest to challenge computerized election results are questionable. The Court also reversed almost $100,000 in sanctions that were levied against Dr. Pressley by two lower courts because she raised the above evidentiary and legal issues in her 2014 election contest."

Fight for the Texas House: Competing Factions Dump Money Into GOP Campaign, The Texan, 30 May 2022 Two groups spent more than most in these proxy fights: the Associated Republicans of Texas (ART) and the Defend Texas Liberty PAC. The former is run by John Nau, chair of the Texas Historical Commission, and the latter by former state Rep. Jonathan Stickland (R-Bedford). Both spent well over half a million dollars on candidates that ended up in runoffs — with even more likely to have been spent between the May 16 filing deadline and the May 24 election.
