I'm about to fall out of my chair - I just discovered early voting at my early vote location is until 7 PM every night this week. Yay! Most of us in Fort Bend commute to work, and being able to vote that late is a huge help. I remember when the first week of early voting meant the polls closed at 4 PM.
All of the Fort Bend County early voting locations, and times they are open, are listed here, with photographs and maps of the location.
At this link is a map of Fort Bend County, with clickable early voting locations.
The first day of early voting is Monday, October 18, and the last day of early voting is Friday, October 29.
Election Day is Tuesday, November 2nd.
I'm excited to vote for Judy Jennings, who is running to be my State Board of Education member, Jeff Weems for Railroad Commissioner, and Linda Chavez Thompson, for Lt. Governor, as well as all of the Democratic candidates, except crazy Kesha Rogers. What a mess. I'm going to have to vote straight D, then uncheck her.
I read in Capitol Inside that Fort Bend County is Ground Zero for Democrats in this election. Well, this Democrat hasn't received any mail, so the ground I live on in Fort Bend is getting zero attention. That's OK, because I have such a strong Democratic voting history, but with all the checking and unchecking going on with Kesha on the ballot, it would probably be a good idea to shore up the triple D's with mail. Maybe it's coming. There may be another unchecking going on with a county D candidate, who is unworthy for office . . .so yeah, it's not going to be the straight D experience I usually enjoy.
