Kendall County voters can begin casting ballots for the March 1 primary election on Monday as early voting for both local Republicans and Democrats begins on February 14 and runs through February 25.
Both the GOP and Democratic ballots are full of candidates as federal, state and county races are featured. Locally, only Republican races are on the ballot as three individuals are vying for Kendall County judge, Precinct 2 and 4 county commissioner and Precinct 2 justice of the peace. Four people also are vying for the GOP nod in the newly created Texas House District 19 while two are seeking to be the Republican Party’s nominee in District 25 of the Texas Senate, including incumbent Donna Campbell.
“One of the most important functions of the county government is to oversee the electoral process,” information on the Kendall County Elections website reads. “The elections department has the responsibility of conducting all federal, state (and) county elections, as well as any local political subdivisions that contract with Kendall County.”
