EARLY VOTING HAS BEGUN! |
|
|
|
|
This week and next you can avoid the lines and vote at several Early Voting locations around Dallas County. Not only are there a lot of offices to vote for [Hint: you can speed up the process a great deal if you just VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET instead of clicking by all those dozens of names!], but several cities including Dallas have various propositions to vote on, most dealing with expanded sales of alcohol.
For a full list of days, times, and locations for early voting, a sample ballot showing what propositions you may get to vote on, a list of polling places on Tuesday, November 2, if you miss the Early Voting, and a place you can check your own voter registration, go to the Dallas County Election Department website at dalcoelections.org.
