Every Election Day in Denton County, 1,000-7,000 registered voters are turned away from polling places

Tell our Commissioners: This stops now!

We can fix this!

Here’s the problem:

During Early Voting, you can vote at any polling place in the county: near your home, work, school, shopping -- anywhere.
But on Election Day, you can vote only at the location assigned to your home address.
If you show up at the wrong place, you’ll be sent somewhere else — maybe miles away — or given a provisional ballot that won’t count.
As a result, 10–15% of Election Day voters are turned away from the first place they try to vote.
This doesn’t happen in 100 other Texas counties where 87% of Texas voters live. They can vote anywhere on Election Day — just like during Early Voting.

• Our elected Denton County Commissioners have the power to fix this, but they have done nothing for five years!

• Let's stand up for our voting rights. Tell them to do their job and give us countywide Election Day voting.
• Join dozens of supporters at the meeting and stand beside an Election Worker as they speak in person to tell the commissioners to adopt Vote Centers so all registered voters can vote at any polling place in the county on Election Day.

• This will be a peaceful protest at a public meeting that all county residents have a right to attend. You will not have to speak, just stand up for 3 minutes. It will take less than an hour of your time.

Here's some of what she had to say: "Co

Join Election Judges and Clerks at one of 5 Denton County Commission meeting this summer to demand that they get rid of the county rule that forces 10-15% of registered voters to scramble on every Election Day trying to figure out where to vote.

30k Dallas Co voters turned away from the polls on March primary Election Day

This just in: from NPR, an estimated 30,000 Dallas County voters were turned away from at least one polling l0cation on March 3. This came out the same day the Dallas GOP party chair resigned under pressure because he refused to repeat this fiasco for the May 26 Primary Runoff Election Day. I don’t usually comment on GOP inside baseball, but it’s worth knowing that West resigned after being re-elected by a wide margin by Republicans in Dallas County because he refused to c
