Hammer gave her victory speech as local unofficial results show her in a big lead against Rebecca Minnick.

“I feel surreal, I feel like it’s a dream.” Hammer said.

I am officially signing off for the night.

Hipolito is currently giving his victory speech as election results show he is ahead by 6% over Alex Villalobos. #SMTX #Election2024 #ElectionDay

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

Just arrived at Hays City Store & Ice House. Though votes aren’t finalized yet, both Anthony Hipolito and Morgan Hammer are in positive spirits as both are in the lead in their separate races - Sheriff and Commissioner Court, Pct. 3 respectively. #Election2024 #ElectionDay

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

When I spoke to Hammer around 8:29, she said she was feeling great and that she felt like her campaign was extremely clean and respectful.

“As long as the counties are being taken care of with the utmost integrity and transparency, we’re winning.”

Leaving Centro Cultural Hispano de San Marcos to go to a watch party at Hays City Store & Ice House, where multiple local politicians will be waiting for results. Will update! @UniversityStar #ElectionDay #Election2024 #SMTX

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

Just finished voting at Centro Cultural Hispano de San Marcos! When I left, there was still about 20 - 25 people in line. #SMTX #Election2024 #ElectionDay

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

It’s 7:00 p.m. and I haven’t voted yet, but I’m in line and will not be leaving the line - even if the poll is closing, if you’ve been in line, stay to vote. It’s your right. #Election2024 #ElectionDay #SMTX

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

Can confirm wait times are over 20 minutes. #SMTX #Election2024

I wish I early voted because there is still a >20 minute wait at this location like a lot of polling locations in San Marcos. Again, check wait times here: https://t.co/o3dhPDi7es

I’m going to take a moment to vote myself! Again, everyone’s voice matters. If you haven’t voted yet, you have until 7 p.m. to enter a polling location line. As long as you’re in line at 7, you can stay in line until you get the chance to vote. #Election2024 #ElectionDay #SMTX

Sewell said it would be nice to see something new and some change this election with some people voting differently than they did the previous election.

“I would prefer somebody that takes their role seriously and is able to show that to other countries as well.”

Just spoke with two #SMTX voters, Megan Sewell and Hope Mellott.

Mellott said issues that brought her to vote today include women’s rights and immigration.

“It’s really hard to be a woman, especially in a predominantly red state… it’s really hard to get some needs met,”

As of 3:30 p.m., 138 voters voted at this polling location and the numbers haven’t been updated since despite the fact that it has passed 5:30 p.m. It’s however obvious that the polling place is busier than the morning hours. #SMTX #Election2024

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

I have arrived at Centro Cultural Hispano and it is definitely busier than earlier. The street is packed with cars. Will update with official numbers in a moment. #SMTX #Election2024 #ElectionDay

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

Going to start live tweeting again soon! Headed to Centro Cultural Hispano de San Marcos again where there is a reported wait time of over 20 minutes, a big difference from this morning. #Election2024 #SMTX #ElectionDay

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

Taking a short break from tweeting, but @LesdyHdz will be providing LBJ updates as well! Stay safe and hydrated! If you haven’t voted yet, please do! Every voice matters. 🗳️ #Election2024 #ElectionDay #SMTX @UniversityStar

[Lesdy D. Hernandez @LesdyHdz]

I’m going to give live updates from the LBJ Student Center polls throughout the day for @UniversityStar. Stay tuned for updates! #SMTX #ElectionDay

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

The wait time at LBJ is over 20 minutes. Some are having to stand outside in the heat. Bring water if you’re planning to vote here. If you need another polling location, check: https://t.co/o3dhPDi7es

[Jamie Moore @jamielbmoore]

LBJ Student Center is still pretty busy, with a pretty lengthy wait time. Students are lined up, you can see it from the front of the building. #SMTX
