There have been no credible news reports that suggest these claims are accurate. The Dallas County Elections Department addressed the claim on their website and explained the circumstance. On Election Day, Dallas County processed over 200,000 voters on the e-pollbooks, which uploaded the transactions to the central server in a timely fashion, the post read in part.

Election Systems and Software, which provided the software for the election, assured the county that the activity was normal and was expected, according to the statement.
