The November 8th Texas General Election is almost here, and early voting starts October 24. Now is the time to research what will be on your ballot, learn about candidates, and plan your vote. The Texas Educators Vote website’s research page links you to non-partisan sources where you can find out where candidates stand on various public education questions and build your ballot. One of the most important parts about voting is being informed about your choices and selecting candidates who align with your priorities and beliefs.
