Take a few minutes to review your sample ballot before you go.
What's on the ballot
This is a full midterm election. Texans will vote for U.S. Senate, U.S. House, Governor and other statewide offices, members of the Texas Legislature, judges, and county and local offices. The specific races on your ballot depend on where you live.
Many races further down the ballot receive far less attention than the statewide contests, so it's worth reviewing your sample ballot before you vote.
Your sample ballot, early voting locations and hours, and Election Day Vote Centers are all at HarrisVotes.com.
