What Waller County voters need to know for the November 3, 2026 joint general election, including the three county assistance district propositions.
On the November 3, 2026 ballot
Three proposed county assistance districts are on the ballot in parts of Waller County. Each district has its own proposition, labeled Proposition A, and only voters who live inside a district vote on its proposition.
Each proposition asks whether to create that district and impose a sales and use tax at the rate of one percent (1%) to finance its operations.
Proposition A
Waller County Assistance District No. 1
On ballot styles for voting precincts 314 and 315.
Polls are open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. On Election Day, you must vote at the polling place for your assigned voting precinct. A voter who is in line at 7 p.m. may still vote.

Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS
Texas Personal Identification Card issued by DPS

A voter who does not have one of these IDs and cannot reasonably obtain one may still vote by signing a Reasonable Impediment Declaration at the polls and showing a supporting document, such as a voter registration certificate; a current utility bill, bank statement, government check or paycheck showing the voter’s name and address; or a certified birth certificate.
