Texas Voter Hub: Everything you need to vote Nov. 3

We’ve collected everything Euless voters need for November 3. Scroll for the state rules, Tarrant County polling specifics, and the races — plus city charter amendments — on your ballot, from governor and U.S. Senate down to the county commissioner, appraisal-district, and Texas House seats that set your property tax bill and decide what gets built on your street. One thing to know up front: Euless holds its regular City Council election each May, so no council seats are on this fall ballot. Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD has no regular school-board election in 2026 — its next trustee election is planned for May 2027. The county and state races below are also where your vote lands on November 3.

State voting rules

Texas’s general election is Tuesday, November 3, 2026. The deadline to register was Monday, October 5, 2026 — extended because the usual 30-day cutoff landed on a Sunday — and a mailed application had to be postmarked by that date. If you were not registered by then, you cannot register in time for November 3. Already-registered voters can check that their registration is still active on the Texas Secretary of State’s voter portal.

Early voting runs Monday, October 19 through Friday, October 30. A registered voter who qualifies may vote by mail by sending a completed Application for Ballot by Mail to the county early-voting clerk; the clerk must receive it by Friday, October 23, 2026, before close of business or 12 noon, whichever is later. A completed mail ballot not postmarked by Election Day must reach the early-voting clerk by 7 p.m. Tuesday, November 3. If the carrier envelope is postmarked by 7 p.m. on Election Day from within the U.S., it may arrive as late as 5 p.m. Wednesday, November 4.

Military and overseas voters may have different federal deadlines and extensions; follow the instructions mailed with your ballot and contact the county early-voting clerk.

In person, Texas requires one of seven photo IDs:

  • Texas driver license
  • Texas Election Identification Certificate
  • Texas personal ID card
  • Texas handgun license
  • U.S. military ID with photo
  • U.S. citizenship certificate with photo
  • U.S. passport (book or card)

For voters 18–69, an otherwise acceptable photo ID may be expired by no more than four years; voters 70 or older may use an otherwise valid expired ID of any age. A voter who cannot reasonably obtain an acceptable photo ID may present a supporting document — voter registration certificate, utility bill, bank statement, government check, or paycheck — and complete a Reasonable Impediment Declaration at the polling place.

Tarrant County

Tarrant County early voting runs October 19–30, with countywide voting at any of its early-voting locations.

  • Oct. 19–23 (Mon–Fri): 8 a.m.–5 p.m.
  • Oct. 24 (Sat): 7 a.m.–7 p.m.
  • Oct. 25 (Sun): 10 a.m.–4 p.m.
  • Oct. 26–30 (Mon–Fri): 7 a.m.–7 p.m.

Among the county’s early-voting locations are the Tarrant County Elections Center at 2700 Premier Street in Fort Worth, the Tarrant County Plaza Building at 201 Burnett Street, Worth Heights Community Center, Tarrant County College Northwest Campus, the Bob Duncan Center in Arlington, and the Tarrant County Subcourthouse at Mansfield. Euless does not appear on that list; the named locations are in Fort Worth, Arlington, and Mansfield, so verify the site nearest you before driving rather than assuming a neighborhood site.

If you have a mail ballot, return it carefully:

  • You may hand-deliver it only in person and only to the Tarrant County Elections Center at 2700 Premier Street, Fort Worth, TX 76111.
  • Use postage beyond a single Forever stamp; Tarrant County warns one stamp is not enough this election.
  • The county elections phone number is 817-831-8683.

Site changes are real this cycle: a Fort Worth City Council member sued over a plan that eliminated 92 polling sites used in 2022, and the approved Tarrant County plan now lists 224 Election Day sites and 47 early-voting sites. For Euless, that means a site you used in 2022 may no longer be open; confirm your current location before driving.

For Dallas County neighbors, early voting runs October 19–30: 7 a.m.–7 p.m. October 19–24, noon–6 p.m. October 25, and 7 a.m.–7 p.m. October 26–30 at countywide Early Voting Vote Centers. A voted mail ballot may be delivered in person only by the voter and only during early voting at the Dallas County Elections office, 1520 Round Table Drive, Dallas (214-819-6359); there is no personal delivery on Election Day.

Euless and your ballot

Statewide races top the ballot.

  • Governor: Republican incumbent Greg Abbott, seeking a fourth term, faces Democratic nominee Gina Hinojosa. Early October polling put the race in a statistical tie or narrow race.
  • U.S. Senate: Republican Ken Paxton, Democrat James Talarico, and Libertarian Ted Brown, plus four certified write-in candidates: Avery Ayers, Brad Hall, Zul Mohamed, and Jade Simmons. A New York Times/Siena poll put Talarico at 51% to Paxton’s 45%, describing it as one of the most expensive Senate contests in the country.
  • Lieutenant Governor: Republican incumbent Dan Patrick faces Democratic nominee Vikki Goodwin. The lieutenant governor presides over the state Senate and drives its agenda.
  • Attorney General: Republican Mayes Middleton, Democrat Nathan Johnson, and Libertarian Tom Oxford, for the seat being vacated by Ken Paxton.
  • Comptroller: The statewide office that runs tax collections and revenue estimates is on the ballot as Glenn Hegar’s term ends.
  • Land Commissioner: Republican incumbent Dawn Buckingham faces Democrat Benjamin Flores and Libertarian Neill Snider.
  • Agriculture Commissioner: Democrat Clayton Tucker against Republican Nate Sheets. Each has accused the other of falling short of a requirement to have worked in agriculture for five of the previous ten years.
  • Railroad Commission: Democrat Jon Rosenthal against Republican Bo French, for a seat regulating oil and gas production. Despite its name, the commission oversees the state’s energy industry, not railroads.

Closer to home, the Tarrant County Commissioner race that covers Euless is Precinct 3: Republican incumbent Matthew H. Krause faces challenger Chris Lopez. This is the county office closest to what gets built and maintained around a Euless home.

Three of the nine seats on the Tarrant Appraisal District board are on the ballot. Place 1 candidates include Phyllis Grissom, Byron Haynes, Sayeda Bilqees Syed, and Rebecca Hardy; in Place 3, incumbent Matt Bryant faces John Adams. These seats directly shape how property is appraised and, in turn, the tax bill a homeowner receives.

The Tarrant County Judge race — the county’s top executive — is between Republican incumbent Tim O’Hare and Democratic challenger Alisa Simmons. As of September 24, O’Hare reported more than $836,000 in available cash and Simmons about $247,000. Other countywide offices include district attorney (Republican Phil Sorrells vs. Democrat Tiffany Burks), district clerk (Republican incumbent Tom Wilder vs. Democrat Nathan Smith), and county clerk (Republican incumbent Mary Louise Nicholson vs. Democrat Lydia Bean).

Euless splits between Texas House District 92 and 94. In HD 92, Democrat Salman Bhojani — a former Euless city councilman and mayor pro tem — faces Republican JP Woodruff. In HD 94, Republican Cheryl Bean faces Democrat Katie O’Brien Duzan in an open seat after Tony Tinderholt did not seek reelection.

Euless sits in Texas Senate District 9, where Democratic incumbent Taylor Rehmet, who won the January 2026 special-election runoff, faces Republican Leigh Wambsganss.

Euless also splits between two U.S. House districts: the 24th, represented by Republican Beth Van Duyne, and the 12th, where Democrat Angela “Heli” Rodriguez Prilliman faces Republican Craig Goldman. Check your address to confirm which congressional race appears on your own ballot.

Nearby Tarrant County voters in Keller ISD will decide an $828 million, five-proposition bond package, with seven candidates competing for three Keller ISD trustee seats — a reminder that school-board lines decide brick-and-mortar costs for neighboring districts even when HEB ISD is off the ballot this year.

Before you leave, here is the short list:

  • Confirm your registration is still active on the Texas Secretary of State’s voter portal. If you were not registered by October 5, you cannot vote in this election.
  • Choose your method: vote early October 19–30 at any Tarrant County early-voting site, or on November 3. If voting by mail, get your Application for Ballot by Mail to the county clerk by October 23.
  • Confirm your site. Tarrant County changed its polling footprint — 92 sites reduced from 2022, now 224 Election Day and 47 early-voting locations — so verify the location before driving rather than assuming last cycle’s spot.
  • Bring one of the seven accepted photo IDs: driver license, election ID certificate, personal ID card, handgun license, military ID, citizenship certificate, or passport. If you lack one, bring a supporting document and ask to complete a Reasonable Impediment Declaration.
  • If returning a mail ballot, add postage beyond a single Forever stamp, return it to the county elections office by the deadline, and — if delivering in person — know that in Tarrant County only the voter may drop it off and only at the Elections Center at 2700 Premier Street, Fort Worth.

The down-ballot lines — county commissioner, appraisal board, county judge, and your Texas House seat — carry the decisions closest to your street: what gets built, how property is appraised, and how local government runs. Don’t leave them blank.
