local Battalion%| May 3, Gramm wins over Teague in primary In Saturday’s primary elec tions, Democratic Congressman Phil Gramm, a leader of the “boll weevil” caucus that sup ported President Reagan’s tax and budget cuts, survived a chal lenge from John Olin “Jack” Teague. Gramm picked up 30,201 votes or 61.6 percent in the race; Teague got 14,083 votes, or 28.7 percent. Wayne Sadberry and Rex Carey re ceived the remaining 9.5 per cent of the votes. Anxious candidates were forced to wait hours for election results because of delays at the Texas Election Bureau. The Bureau blamed the slow returns on computer problems. The Election Bureau, which for years has provided returns from state elections, normally reports thousands of votes from around Texas in the first hours after the polls close at 7 p.m. On Saturday night, only scattered returns were available more than 2‘/2 hours after the voting deadline had passed. Mark White and Buddy Tem ple are expected to compete in the Democratic gubernatorial runoff election June 5. Brazos County vote totals in the race are as follows: Mark White, 4,360; Bob Arm strong, 2,269; Buddy Temple, 1,755; David Young, 131; Ray Mayo, 71; and Donald Beagle, 63.
