ELECTION REMINDER!
(And some thoughts from the County Chair)
Today is the first day of early voting for the March 3, 2026 Primary Election in Texas. Another election? Yes! I know many of you are confused by the number of recent elections, run-off elections, special elections, and special election run-offs! It is a lot - but the closer to “home” an election is, the more impact the results have on your daily lives. GO VOTE, pretty-please!
A very big part of your duty to vote includes your responsibility to be an informed voter. Yes, it is nearly a full-time job to w**d through the mountain of direct mail, flyers on your front door, and text messages on your phone! We strive to help you choose the right candidates by conducting events across the County where you can meet and question the candidates.
Here is my point: Don’t vote for candidates who campaign ugly. Vote for candidates whom you believe will work for you and improve your quality of life. Please don’t award your vote to a contestant who claims how bad “the other guy” is.
The Texas Election Code Chapter 258 established The Texas Code of Fair Campaign Practices. The Texas Code of Fair Campaign Practices is a voluntary, ethical pledge for candidates to run honest, respectful, and transparent campaigns. It commits individuals to avoiding personal attacks, slander, and voter intimidation, focusing instead on issues and records.
The minute you see “ugly” in that deluge of mail, calls, texts, and flyers - disqualify that candidate! Stop giving votes to candidates who disrespect us by disregarding the law.
Now what? Go get a copy of your sample ballot https://web.guadalupetx.gov/sb/SBlookup2.php Read it. Mark on it. Take it with you to the polls….you’re allowed.
Now go vote, and thank you ❤️🤍💙.
