(Austin, TX) — The U.S. Postal Service is announcing the discovery of more than 800 mail-in ballots in Texas mail processing facilities on Tuesday and Wednesday.

A federal judge had ordered the Postal Service to search its facilities for mail-in ballots that hadn’t yet been delivered to county election officials. Another judge had issued a similar order on Tuesday concerning 12 districts nationwide, but the Postal Service missed the 3 p.m. deadline.

Of the 815 undelivered ballots found in Texas, 322 were in Fort Worth and the rest in cities throughout the state.
