Damn Sneaky May 4 Election Today

Saturday, May 4th, 2019

Another one of those sneaky May elections is upon us. In particular:

  • Hutto – Mayor, City Council
  • Hutto – ISD – Board of Trustees, Bond
  • Leander – City Council
  • Lakeway – Mayor, City Council
  • Pflugerville ISD – Board of Trustees
  • Round Rock – City Council
  • Taylor – City Council
  • Village of Briarcliff – Mayor, Aldermen
  • Village of Webberville – Sales Tax Proposition

Also, Empower Texans has a roundup of various Texas ISD bond elections.

Check your local League of Women Voter guides/media/etc. to see if there’s an election you weren’t aware of today. These things have a way of sneaking up on you…
