| There
are two ways to vote early in Texas |
| 1. Early Voting in Texas |
| Early voting in person may be easier than
you think. You don't have to stand in long lines on Election
Day. Registered voters may vote early at a designated location.
Early voting in person starts 17 days before
each election and ends 4 days before
each election. If you can drive or if you
have a friend or relative who can drive you, you don't even
have to get out of the car. Call ahead to notify the early
voting clerk that you want to vote from your car. This procedure
is called "curbside voting" and is available to
any voter who has difficulty walking or standing for long
periods. The election official will bring your ballot to your
car outside the polling place. Curbside voting is available
during early voting and on Election Day. Texas law requires
all early and Election Day polling locations to be physically
accessible to voters with disabilities. Call your election
official for information on your particular voting sites. |
| 2.
Early Voting by Mail |
You may vote early by mail if you are:
- going to be away from your county on Election Day and
during early voting;
- sick or disabled;
- 65 years of age or older on Election Day; or
- confined in jail.
|
| Applications for a ballot by mail must be submitted
to the early voting clerk on or after the 60th day before Election
Day and before the close of business on the 7th day before Election
Day. |
If you are voting early by mail you must send
your application by:
- regular mail;
- common or contract carrier; or
- FAX (if a FAX machine is available to the early voting
clerk and if you are submitting your application from outside
the county). Angelina County Tax Office Fax No.
(936) 634-2690
|
| Exception: If you are voting
early because of expected absence, you may apply in person for
a ballot by mail before the first day of early voting in person
(usually the 17th day before the election). |

Request
for an Application for a Ballot by Mail
(2) from the Secretary of State's office
(3) from the early voting clerk in your county. You do
not have to use a formal application; however, an informal application
must be in writing and include:
|
- your signature (or a witness' signature if you cannot
sign);
- your name and the address at which you are registered
to vote;
- your name and the address at which you are registered
to vote;
- the address to which the ballot is to be mailed;
- the election date and for which election you are requesting
a ballot (for a primary election, you must state the political
party's primary in which you wish to vote); and,
- a reason why you are eligible to vote early by mail (to
be eligible to vote early due to expected absence from the
county, your application must state an address out-of-county
to have your ballot mailed).
|
| All applications, whether
formal or informal, must include the name, office or official title of
the early voting clerk, or they will not be accepted. |
| The early voting clerk
must receive your marked ballot by 7 p.m. on Election Day! |

| Military and
Overseas Voters |
| Military and overseas voters are welcome to
use the regular registration and early voting by mail process
available to all voters away from their home county on Election
Day (see
Request for
an Application for Ballot by Mail and
Voter Registration Application)
or they may use the Federal Postcard Application
(FPCA). The FPCA is a form provided by federal law to permit
members of the U.S. Armed Forces and Merchant Marines, their
dependents, and U.S. citizens abroad to vote early by mail
and, if necessary, to temporarily register to vote. Click
