Callahan County Voters: An Update on Early Voting Locations
We have heard your concerns regarding early voting locations and would like to provide clarification regarding the original plan and the steps being taken to address those concerns.
The original plan was to conduct early voting exclusively at the courthouse. This arrangement was outlined in the contracts signed by the City of Clyde and Clyde CISD, as well as in the County’s Order of Election.
The decision to use only the courthouse was based on several considerations, including limited space at alternative locations and the noise and disruption that election activities can bring to offices that must continue conducting their regular business. Additionally, adding another early voting location is expected to cost approximately $7,500. My intention was to avoid placing this additional financial burden on the City of Clyde, Clyde CISD, and Callahan County.
Following Commissioners Court, Mr. Mann and I discussed the concerns raised by voters, explored available options, and made several phone calls to determine whether an additional early voting location could be accommodated.
As a result of these discussions, Commissioners Court will meet Friday to consider amendments to the existing contracts and the County’s Order of Election to include an additional early voting location at the Clyde JP1 Office.
I appreciate the feedback we have received from Callahan County voters. While the original plan was developed with space, operational, and financial considerations in mind, we recognize the importance of listening to our community and exploring solutions when concerns are raised.
Thank you for your patience and continued engagement as we work through this process. Our goal remains to serve Callahan County voters while being mindful of the responsibilities and costs associated with administering elections.
If you have any questions, concerns or feedback please call the Clerk’s Office at 325-854-5815.
-Nicole Crocker, County Clerk
