Update from the State Capitol

4 years ago By Guest Column Dist. 57 Rep. Trent Ashby
As we approach the upcoming Primary Elections on March 1, I would like to remind everyone that early voting begins on Monday, February 14 and ends on February 25. This will be the first election held under the newly drawn political districts and will include candidates running for federal, state, local, and judicial offices. Though I always encourage folks to vote early to avoid waiting in line to cast your ballot, what’s most important is that you make plans to participate in the process and have your voice heard by exercising the right to vote. For more information on early voting locations, what you’ll need to bring with you to the polling locations, or any other questions you may have, please call our office or visit votetexas.gov.

The community is invited to attend a forum at the Truman Kimbro Convention Center in Madisonville Thursday at 7 p.m. for an opportunity to hear from several contested positions, including County Judge, Commissioner, District Attorney, Justice of the Peace and Texas Agriculture Commissioner. State Representative candidates are not expected, due to a scheduling conflict with a similar event in Walker County. Written questions will be accepted from those in attendance. Questions for each office will be read and answered by each candidate. The order in which the candidates answer these questions will rotate with each question.
