Local Elections May 10

Early Voting Begins Next Monday

On May 10 in Dallas County nineteen suburban cities, eight school districts (including Dallas), and one water control district (in Balch Springs) will be holding elections. (Some others won't be having elections since no one ran against the candidates filed; this was an idea by our mostly un-democratic legislature to save money.) This will include a referendum on a proposed 1.35 billion dollar bond issue for the Dallas ISD. A pdf file of the sample ballot is here, and the Early Voting times and places are here. The list of voting places on Saturday, May 10, will be posted later at the Dallas County Elections Department.
