Commissioners Court approved a countywide polling places program for next year in Jasper County. The change, proposed by County Clerk Holly Thomas, allows registered voters to cast ballots at any designated countywide polling location, regardless of their assigned precinct. This measure is intended to address the three-day gap between the end of early voting and Election Day.
