For a list of vote centers and wait times, go to www.HarrisVotes.com. “There are 42 political entities on the November 7 ballot,” said Harris County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth. “However, voters will only see the contests that are connected to the address where they are registered to vote.” Voters should be aware that only citizens registered to vote within the legal boundaries of the City of Houston are eligible to vote in the contests offered by the City of Houston. A “Houston” postal address does not guarantee that a voter lives within the legal boundaries of the City of Houston.
