Early Voting Starts For Texas' Primary Runoffs. Here's What You Need To Know.
Early voting in Texas starts Monday for the July 14 primary runoff elections. The runoffs were supposed to be in May, but were postponed because of the pandemic.
The CDC has some simple guidelines to follow to protect yourself from the coronavirus if you plan to vote in person.
Travis and Williamson counties offer maps of wait times at polling sites, which can help you avoid crowds.
Texas has open primaries, which means voters don't register with a party ahead of an election. Instead, voters choose which party's ballot they want at their polling place. They can't, however, vote in both the Republican and Democratic primaries in the same election.
Two things to keep in mind: If you voted in the March 3 primary, you MUST vote in the same party primary in the runoff. So if you voted in the Republican primary in March, you have to vote in the Republican primary runoff.
If you didn't vote in the March primary, you can vote in either party's runoff.
