What are you voting for in county elections?

texas_decides_logo_0

It’s early voting for Texas’ March 6 primaries. Early voting runs from Tuesday, February 20 to Friday, March 2. We’ve compiled a partial list of local county races in our area. These counties range in size from 100 people to 160,000 people, and the responsibilities of county positions will vary accordingly. If you’re unsure of what any of these positions do, check outTexas Counties Deliver for explainers on seats fromCounty Judge to County CommissionertoJustice of the Peace.

For a comprehensive list of local, state, and national candidates who have filed, visit theSecretary of State website. You can get a preview of your ballot from the League of Women Voters. Enter your address, and learn about races in your area by going to vote411.org.

There are also state positions on the ballot this primary. To learn about what your statewide elected officials do, listen here. We’ve also done interviews with Texas’ Congressional District 23 candidates Jay Hulings, Angela Villescaz, Judy Canales, Rick Treviño, and Gina Ortiz Jones. In the coming week, we’ll have interviews with D23 incumbent Will Hurd, and his Republican challenger, Alma Arredondo-Lynch.
