Early voting comes to and end Friday; general election Tuesday
Early voting for the upcoming Nov. 7 election comes to an end at 5 p.m. on Friday.
Early voting is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday-Friday at four locations: Montague County Courthouse Annex, City of Bowie Community Room, Nocona Community Center and Saint Jo Civic Center.
Ginger Wall, elections administrator, said there were 335 early votes cast through Tuesday morning across the county.
On election day next Tuesday voters are reminded they can cast ballots at any voting center in Montague County, not just their specific precinct. For example if you are in Saint Jo working, but live in Bowie, you can cast a ballot in Saint Jo.
Election day voting will be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the following locations: Bowie Public Library, Bowie Community Room, Nocona Community Center, Tales ‘N’ Trails Museum, Ringgold Elementary, Saint Jo Civic Center, Valley View Baptist Church, Montague County Courthouse Annex Community Room, Sunset City Hall and Forestburg Community Center.

The regular meeting of the Bowie City Council for July 22 has been cancelled. City Manager Bert Cunningham and Mayor Gaylynn Burris will be attending the Texas Public Power Association conference.
City of Bowie officials were on hand to inspect the emergency electrical generators that were delivered last week.
Mayor Gaylynn Burris and City Manager Bert Cunningham inspected one of three emergency electrical generators purchased as part of an ongoing Federal Emergency Management Agency Hazard Mitigation Grant. They also talked with Jay Evans, head of the city electric department, and Jerry Sutton, director of the water treatment plant about the next step for installation of the generators.
This grant provides funding for one 150 kW and two 250 kW generators for use at the water treatment plant.
