The October 7 deadline is approaching for the for the November General Election.
The deadline is 30 days prior to the November 5 election which means community members must be registered by that day and the office must have a correct address by that day.
To register, residents can visit the Hockley County Elections Office at 911 Austin St. in Levelland or go online to the Texas Secretary of State’s website at www.votetexas.gov for more information and to download a voter registration form.
Completed forms must be postmarked by October 7.
If community members need additional assistance or have questions about voter registration, please contact the Hockley County Elections Office at (806)-894-1105.
The Elections Office will be open October 7 from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
For this upcoming election that runs October 28 through November 1, that Monday through Friday, the elections office will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. all five days.
As the November General Election draws near, county election offices are making the necessary preparations to be ready for voters as well as informing community members of important deadlines.
If an individual has a yellow voter registration card that has an expiration date of December 31, 2025, the registration is likely active unless the office received something back in the mail and it’s in suspense. Regardless, those individuals would still be able to vote in the election, the office will need to get a correct address or something on the record would need to be corrected.
