Harris County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth reminds citizens that this is the last week they can vote early before the November 7 Joint General & Special Elections. So far, more than 91.5K people have voted in person in Harris County.

“Last week, we reported an increase of about 50% in the number of in-person voters compared to the previous similar election in 2015 when the ballot included statewide and county-wide propositions and a city of Houston mayoral election without an incumbent,” said Clerk Hudspeth. “A sturdy flow continued over the weekend, and that is a good sign for the election turnout. We are optimistic that the pace will continue during the last week of early voting.”

Early Voting continues through this Friday, November 3. Voting centers are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. during Early Voting and on Election Day, Tuesday, November 7. Click here to find locations and wait times. There are 68 voting centers open during Early Voting, and on Election Day, 701 locations will be available across Harris County; voters can cast their ballots at any one location that is most convenient to them.

“Earlier this month, we launched a campaign to educate voters about their voting options and highlighted the key dates associated with the election,” added Clerk Hudspeth. “The campaign is running on radio, television, social media, digital billboards, and print in the four languages required under the Federal Voting Rights Act in Harris County.”
