Kerr County voters who would like to take advantage of the scheduling flexibility offered by early, in-person voting will soon get their chance to do so. Early voting opens Monday, Oct. 23, at two locations in Kerr County.
Early voting
Early, in-person balloting in this year’s Constitutional Amendment Election will run from Oct. 23-Nov. 3.
The two early balloting polls in Kerr County include the main location at the Hill Country Youth Event Center (in the Happy State Bank Expo Hall), 3785 TX27 in Kerrville, and the secondary site at the West Kerr County Courthouse Annex, 510 College Street in Ingram.
Registered voters will be able to cast their ballots at either location during the following times and dates:
8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday through Friday, Oct. 23-27,
8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday through Wednesday, Oct. 30-Nov. 1,
7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, Nov. 2-3.
No voting will be offered on Saturdays or Sundays.
Ballot by mail
Those applying for a ballot by mail must make sure the county elections office has received their request by the end of day on Friday, Oct. 27, 2023.
To be eligible to vote early by mail in Texas, a voter must be: 65 years or older, sick/disabled; out of the county on election day and during the period for early voting; expecting to give birth within 3 weeks before or after election day, or be confined in jail (but otherwise eligible to vote.)
Nov. 7 election
To be decided on the Nov. 7 ballot for the Constitutional Amendment Election are 14 state propositions.
Their topics range from agricultural and wildlife management protections, child-care facility tax obligations, a “wealth tax” and a temporary limit on the maximum appraised value of real property other than a residence homestead to the creation of the Texas Water Fund and the Texas Energy Fund, a cost-of-living adjustment for certain Texas teachers, to raising the retirement age for Texas justices and judges and more.
