General Information

There are two ways to vote early in Texas: in person and by mail. Either option will eliminate waiting in long lines on election day. Early voting generally begins 17 days before an election and ends 4 days before. If the 17th day before election day happens to land on a weekend, then early voting begins the following Monday.

Lines at early voting are usually shorter and the days and hours are more convenient.  Early voting is open to all registered voters, no excuses necessary!

Curbside Voting:  This service is available to any voter who has difficulty walking or standing for long periods. Please call ahead to notify the early voting clerk that you want to vote from your car. The election official will bring your ballot to your car outside the polling location.

Early Voting By Mail:

Voting by mail has been available to elderly voters and voters with physical disabilities in Texas for decades. Applications for a ballot by mail must be submitted to the Kendall County Elections Department no later than 11 days before.

 You may vote by mail if you are:
                

• Going to be away from your county on Election Day and during early voting
