Who and what is on your ballot?

Texas voters cast ballots at least three times per year. In some races if a candidate does not get a majority of the votes, there is an additional election between the top two voter getters called a "run-off."

You can see a sample of your ballot at vote411.org or a printable sample ballot at www.dallascountyvotes.org/voters/ballot. You will be asked to provide information to enable the system to show the ballot for your address.

About Vote411.org / Voters Guide

Starting 30 days before each election, you can start using LWV nonpartisan resources to learn where candidates running for office in your community stand on the issues and to see pro/con list for propositions. You can find out what your candidates think about everything from healthcare to jobs to environmental views all in one place in any of these formats:

Create a Personalized Ballot using Vote411.org (Available now)
Read the Voters Guide on your computer screen (Available now)
Pick up a printed Voters Guide from a Dallas Public Library or the LWV Dallas office (Available about fifteen days before the election)

Candidates are sent questions by LWV volunteers based on which role they are running for at the federal, state, and local level. The responses to those questions come directly from candidates. For propositions and bonds on that will be on your ballot, LWV volunteers provide a pro/cons list. While the three formats are different and are published at different times, the information is the same.

The printed Voters Guide shows ALL the races and issues in Dallas County. You will need to look up your voting districts at https://www.dallascountyvotes.org/voters/registration/lookup . The Voter Registration Certificate (orange postcard mailed in January of 2026) may be incorrect if your districts were shifted due to redistricting. Alternatively, check the district maps at the end of the Guide to find what districts you vote in.
