Early Voting Closes Statewide Ahead of Texas’ March 3 Primary

Voters can find sample ballots, ID rules and polling places on county sites to plan for Election Day.

Overview

  • Election Day is Tuesday, March 3, with polls open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. across Texas.
  • Early voting ran Feb. 17–27 and has ended; voters who did not vote early can cast ballots at their designated polling place on Election Day.
  • All 38 U.S. House seats, the U.S. Senate seat, the governorship and numerous state, judicial and county offices are on primary ballots, with some districts changed under newly drawn maps.
  • Texas uses open primaries, and any race without a majority winner advances to a May 26 runoff between the top two candidates.
  • In-person voters must present an acceptable photo ID, and the Secretary of State’s Am I Registered portal and county election websites provide registration checks, sample ballots and polling locations.
