Early voting begins Monday, Oct. 19

Parker County voters head to the polls for early voting, beginning Monday, Oct. 19. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3.

Voters will choose a U.S. senator, a governor and a slate of statewide officials, along with a county judge and two contested county commissioner seats.

Every voter in the county will see the same long list of federal, state, and countywide races on the ballot. What changes from one area to the next is the bottom of the ballot: which commissioner and justice of the peace races appear, which Congressional district a voter lives in, and whether a school board or city measure is included.

The biggest local item is in Willow Park, where voters will decide if the city adopts a home-rule charter and whether or not to approve $10.11 million in certificates of obligation for water, sewer, street, and drainage work. Voters in the Garner, Poolville, and Perrin-Whitt school districts will also elect trustees.

On every ballot in the county

The races in the table appear on every Parker County ballot. Headlining the list are the U.S. Senate race between Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat James Talarico, and Gov. Greg Abbott’s bid for another term against Democrat Gina Hinojosa. Locally, County Judge Pat Deen faces Democrat Richard Simms.

One federal race splits the county. Most voters are in U.S. House District 12, where Republican Craig Goldman faces Democrat Angela “Heli” Rodriguez Prilliman. Voters in ballot styles 12 (Precincts 325, 330, 335, 340, 345, 355); 17 (Precincts 410, 415, 420, 435, 455); and and 18 (Precincta 410, 415, 435) are in District 25, where Republican Roger Williams faces Democrat Dione Sims.

Ballots by precinct

The county prints a different ballot style (BS) for each combination of districts. Find your voting precinct number on your voter registration card, then look for it below. Some precinct numbers appear in more than one style because the precinct is split by a school district or city line. Everything listed here is in addition to the countywide races above.
