  North East Street between the Uvalde County Courthouse and the Uvalde Leader-News offices was blocked off from through traffic as close to 100 people turned out to see the local election results from respective precincts from Uvalde County trickled in as the evening progressed. 

 Republican Candidate Don McLaughlin for Texas State House District 80 held a private party for his supporters at the Broadway 830 restaurant while Republican Candidate Roy Kothmann had rented a venue space for a private party where his supporters gathered. 

 The Uvalde County Elections office released the unofficial election results from all the county precincts shortly about 8:30 PM.  

 The results showed that while incumbent candidate for Sheriff Rubin Nolasco received the most votes in the Republican Uvalde County Primary Race, his votes weren’t enough to stave off a run-off election between him and challenger Otto Arnim. Nolasco was not seen among the many candidates and citizens gathered downtown. 

 Also missing from the assembly were Robb School victims family members, some of whom had been voiced criticism against Nolasco and some of the other constable candidates who were on scene during the May 24th, 2022 tragedy at Robb School

Attorney Charles Downing defeated incumbent Rhonda Vigil for the Uvalde County Republican Chair seat. 

With few exceptions, Uvalde voters voted for the incumbent candidates in many races.
