Texas Voters Head to Polls May 3 with ID Rules

Voters across Texas will go to the polls on Saturday, May 3, to decide on various local bond issues and positions, with polling places open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Texans must present an acceptable photo ID, such as a Texas Driver License from the Department of Public Safety, to vote in person. Those without an acceptable photo ID and who cannot reasonably obtain one may use supporting documents like a government document with their name and address or a certified birth certificate. These identification requirements apply to both early voting and Election Day. Information about sample ballots, polling locations, and guidance for voters lacking proper identification is available online. Election results will be posted after polls close.
