Early voting for the November 5th election begins on Monday, October 21st, and continues through November 1st. On October 16, 2019, Texas Secretary of State Ruth Hughes, issued a press release encouraging Texans to vote early and prepare to cast their ballots in the November 5th election. There are 10 constitutional amendments that all voters can vote on, and many voters will have additional measures on their ballots. Studies show that having a voting plan increases the likelihood that voters will actually vote. Make sure you have a voting plan and invite your friends and family to do the same. Be prepared, be informed, and go VOTE!
