The Hunt County Commissioners Court on Nov. 17 formally canvassed the Nov. 4, 2025 constitutional amendment election and approved the canvass by voice vote.
Jeannie Ash, representing elections staff, told the court Hunt County had 74,390 registered voters as of Nov. 4 and read county totals for State of Texas Propositions 1 through 16 into the record. Ash also summarized provisional ballot handling: 32 provisional ballots were presented, of which 8 were accepted and 24 were rejected.
Turnout and audit: During public testimony earlier in the meeting, presiding election judge Doug Rosart said the county recorded about 11,781 total votes, which he described as approximately a 15.8% turnout of about 74,000 registered voters, and described a significant hand-count labor burden that in his account matched electronic results for the sample counted.
Motion to approve canvass: A commissioner moved and a second was offered to approve canvassing of the votes. Judge Stovall called for a voice vote and announced, “Motion carries.” The transcript records the approval by voice; no roll-call vote tally was entered in the meeting record.
Notes on numeric transcription: The meeting transcript contains some garbled numerals in the line-by-line readout of per-proposition totals. The county’s certified canvass record is the authoritative source for exact per-proposition vote counts; the transcript record is summarized here and includes the provisional-ballot disposition as read into the record.
What happens next: The canvass was approved, and the court adjourned at 10:20 a.m. Any formal certification documents or corrected numeric tables should be obtained from Hunt County Elections' official canvass records for exact counts and certification details.
