The Hillary Clinton campaign in Texas says it may mount a legal challenge to the state's caucus results.
Clinton campaign officials are citing what they call "hundreds of complaints" of mischief caused by the Barack Obama campaign at caucus sites across the state.
The Clinton officials cite evidence that Obama supporters illegally obtained caucus packets in several precincts throughout the state. Under caucus rules, whomever has the packet is placed in charge of the caucus. They also say Obama supporters locked Clinton voters out of several caucuses.
Texas has a hybrid system where two-thirds of the delegates are awarded through a primary and another third come from 8,700 precinct caucuses that began immediately after polls closed.
Earlier, the Democratic presidential campaigns traded accusations of other primary day shenanigans, prompting the party to issue a stern reprimand to follow the rules.
