Vote in Person If you are eligible to vote on election day, you are eligible to vote at either of the City's early voting sites during the early voting period. The lines are shorter and the days and hours are more convenient. Early voting is open to all registered voters. Vote by MailAll currently registered voters that reside in Texas City are eligible to request and receive a by-mail ballot if any of the following conditions prevents them from voting in-person during the early voting period or on Election Day:
The request must state the address at which you are registered to vote, one of the above conditions for requesting a ballot, the address to which you want the ballot mailed, and your signature. If the ballot is not to be mailed outside the County and not to the address at which you are registered, you must give an explanation as to the address such as nursing home, hospital, etc. Applications for ballot by mail may not be submitted more than 60 days before election day and must be received by this office no later than the 7 th day before election day. All voted ballots that are returned on or before election day will be counted. Voted ballots mailed from outside the United States may be counted if clearly postmarked on or before election day and received not later than the fifth day after election day. |

| MILITARY AND OVERSEAS VOTERS | |||||||||||||||||||||
| U. S. citizens residing outside the United States along with members of the Uniformed Services and their family members are eligible to use the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) form to request a by-mail ballot.
Having a permanent residence address in Texas City is a prerequisite to requesting ballots from the City of Texas City. Residence is defined in Section 1.015 of the Texas Election Code as the voter's permanent home to which he or she intends to return after any temporary absence. This definition implies that you must have lived at the location at one time and intend to return, so generally you cannot list a location where you have never been physically present. Postage-paid FPCA forms are available from U.S. embassies, consulates, and from the voting assistance officer at each military installation. An online version of the FPCA form is available form the website of the Federal Voting Assistance Program. |
