Agenda Item

Discuss and consider approving two additional temporary branch polling places for the November 2, 2010 elections.

Background

On August 10, 2010, the Court approved the early voting schedule for dates, hours, and polling places for the November 2, 2010 elections. Subsequently, request was made to add two days of voting at the Georgetown ISD High School Annex Cafeteria from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and four days of voting at the Liberty Hill ISD Head Start Office from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Georgetown ISD, Georgetown City, and Liberty Hill ISD have contracted with the county to provide election services for their respective elections. Additionally, the County is conducting a local option election for City of Georgetown registered voters. Football games will be taking place in close proximity to the proposed locations. The political jurisdictions hope to increase voter turnout by providing these two additional locations. This request is made for the convenience of the voters in an attempt to better serve the registered voters of the County.
