The clock is ticking down for early voting in this election season, with the deadline approaching Friday. As we approach the end of the early voting period, registered voters have one last chance to cast their ballots ahead of the official Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 5. The importance of making your voice heard can't be understated, with various local and regional measures up for decision.
Eligibility to vote is clear-cut: you must be a U.S. citizen, have your residency set in the county where you're registering, and be 18 by Election Day, according to an announcement from the City of Fort Worth. Missing out on early voting isn't the end of the road, though it is crucial to be aware of the upcoming key dates in this electoral timeline, with early voting coming to a close on Nov. 1, and then, the moment of truth – Election Day itself on Nov. 5.
To participate effectively in this democratic process, it’s imperative to know where one can exercise their right to vote. The city of Fort Worth's official website provides an accessible list of early voting sites, which, together with Election Day precincts can equip voters with needed information. Local county election sites to refer to include Tarrant County, Wise County, Johnson County, and Denton County.
