How to Vote

Voter Registration

If you are currently registered to vote in Texas you may update your name or address online, even if you are moving from a different county in Texas. If you are not currently registered to vote in Texas, you must print, sign, and submit a paper application.

Voting In Person

Early Voting begins Monday, Oct. 23rd and runs thru Friday, Nov. 3rd. Election Day is Tuesday, November 7th. Polls are open 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM from Monday thru Saturday, and 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM on Sunday. You must take an approved photo ID with you to vote.

As we get closer to the November 2023 Constitutional Amendment election, polling places will be announced. Remember, you can vote at any polling place in Williamson County.

Voting By Mail

Registered voters who are 65 or older, sick or disabled, expected to give birth within 3 weeks before or after Election Day, will be out of the county for the entire early voting period and election day, or are confined in jail but eligible to vote, may apply to vote by mail. To apply to vote by mail, download the application, fill it out, sign it, and mail it in.

The deadline to apply to vote by mail for the November 2023 Constitutional Amendment election is October 27th.

IMPORTANT: New state laws require that you include either your Driver License/Texas ID Number or the last four digits of your Social Security number on your application and your ballot. The Texas Democratic Party recommends including both your license and last four digits of your social security number to avoid your application or ballot being rejected.

You can now track the status of your VBM application and your ballot by mail.

If you filled out and submitted a ballot by mail application, you should be receiving your ballot starting in mid-September. Ballots by mail must be postmarked by Election Day and received by the Williamson County Elections Office no later than 5:00 PM the following day.

Voting Accessibility

If you have a disability, you have the right to bring someone into the voting booth with you to help you. You can bring anyone except your employer, an agent of your employer, or an officer or agent of your labor union. You may also request assistance from the election officials.

Your polling place should be physically accessible and have accessible equipment that allows you to vote privately and independently. An election officer may give voting priority to individuals with a mobility problem that substantially impairs the person’s ability to move around. Learn more here.

For assistance in English or Spanish call 844-TX-VOTES, in Asian languages call 888-API-VOTE, in Arabic call 844-YALLA-US, and in American Sign Language (video call) call 301-818-VOTE.

Voter ID Laws are still in effect. Please remember to take your Texas Driver License or other approved photo identification with you to the polls. More info and list of acceptable IDs here.
