Education is on the ballot at every level of government. Now is the time to research your vote and learn what candidates think about important public education issues. We’ve made it easy for you to learn about who does what and then build your ballot! Early voting starts February 14 and Educator Voting Day is Thursday, February 17.
Our new TEV interactive tool allows you to look by elected position, by issue, or all at once to understand who makes important decisions about public education. Built into each section are also links to TEV partners Teach the Vote and the League of Women Voters of Texas to see how candidates answered education-related questions and build your personal ballot. We’ve made it super easy to do your research. Learn who does what and plan your vote today!
To Do:
- Click around this page on the TEV website to learn who makes important education decisions – by elected position and/or by issue.
- Find out what your candidates think about those important issues at Teach the Vote.
- Build your personal ballot with the League of Women Voters’ Vote411.
- Download the one-pager “Who Does What” and share with your friends, family, and others to help them understand how their vote relates to what happens in Texas public schools every single day.
