Editor’s note: The March 3, 2026 primary elections have concluded. This article is retained as an archival guide to the Election Day voting centers.

Registered Lubbock County voters could cast ballots at any of 35 countywide voting centers during the Republican and Democratic primary elections on Tuesday, March 3, 2026.

The voting centers were open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Anyone in line by 7 p.m. was entitled to remain in line and vote.

Because Lubbock County used countywide voting centers, voters were not limited to a polling place assigned to their home precinct. The original location list was published by Lubbock Lights using information from the county Elections Office.

A planned voting center at the Wolfforth Community Center, 115 Park Road, was removed shortly before Election Day because the political parties lacked enough election judges to staff it. The Casey Administration Building remained available in Wolfforth, while three other nearby options were located in western Lubbock, according to the Elections Office announcement reported by the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Identification and party-primary rules

Texas voters were asked to present one of seven approved forms of photo identification:

• Texas driver’s license
• Texas Election Identification Certificate
• Texas personal identification card
• Texas handgun license
• U.S. military identification card containing a photograph
• U.S. citizenship certificate containing a photograph
• U.S. passport book or card

A voter who did not possess and could not reasonably obtain an approved photo ID could present an authorized supporting document and complete a Reasonable Impediment Declaration. The Texas secretary of state maintains the complete voter-identification requirements.

Texas does not require voters to register with a political party in advance. However, a voter could participate in only one party’s primary. Voting in either the Republican or Democratic primary affiliated that voter with the selected party for the remainder of the calendar year, including any primary runoff.

A person who voted in one party’s March primary could not vote in the other party’s runoff. Someone who did not participate in the March primary could select either party’s runoff, provided the voter had not otherwise affiliated with a party. Those rules are explained in the secretary of state’s party-affiliation guide.
