Reliable Voting Information is Available!

It’s easy to get confused about voting. There’s a lot of information, including misinformation (some deliberate and some not, as this article indicates), that exists. The key is to know which information to trust and where to go when you have questions.

The Austin Chamber of Commerce has started a site entitled Keep Austin Voting that gives a quick run down of the candidates on all levels, as well as various county issues. The Chamber says, “Resources on the website include poll locations, voting dates and times. Information and links about candidates for federal, state, and county positions as well as propositions for the City of Austin, Austin ISD and Round Rock ISD are also available.”

Another reliable website is the official Travis County County Clerk website, which offers a variety of resources, including their phone number which you can call, and answers frequently asked questions.

For more information on voter misinformation, the Electronic Privacy Information Center, has just released a report.

As early voting has already started, here are some quick links on voting locations:
