There are races in Texas that will affect the Federal government’s makeup this November. In addition, if you live in the Linden- Kildare area there are three L-K CISD Trustees up for vote and if you live in certain areas of Cass County you will be voting on the creation of the Assistance District 1, along with a sales tax for its creation. Within this newspaper, we have included a list of polling places and election dates and times.
