Are you registered to vote? Deadline is Feb. 5

Published

on

Texas law requires eligible voters to register by the 30th day before election day, so if you want to vote in the March 5 party primaries the deadline is Feb. 5.
To confirm your registration status visit the Texas Secretary of State webpage and click on the Am I registered? portal. Go to votetexas.gov.
On the portal you can look up your voter registration in the statewide database. Voter registration is county-based, so citizens are encouraged to contact their county voter registrar for specific questions on the status of the registration.
Texans who have recently changed their name or address can easily update their voter registration online at Texas.gov.
You are eligible to vote if:

  • You are a United States citizen;
  • You are a resident of the county where you submit the application;
  • You are at least 17 years and 10 months old on the date your voter registration application is submitted, and you are 18 years of age on Election Day.
  • You are not a convicted felon (you may be eligible to vote if you have completed your sentence, probation, and parole); and
  • You have not been declared by a court exercising probate jurisdiction to be either totally mentally incapacitated or partially mentally incapacitated without the right to vote.
    Call the Montague County Elections Administrator at 894-2540
