Voter ID

You don't want to get to a polling location and not be ready. There are certain types of ID you need to show before you cast your ballot.

Here's a list that shows you all of the acceptable ID forms.

Is my voter registration information public?

Voter privacy rules vary by state. In Texas, if you are registered to vote, your name, address, precinct you live in and registration number is public record. But your birthday or social security number is kept confidential. The Texas secretary of state allows certain individuals to keep their information confidential, including law enforcement, judges and some crime victims.

Unlike the lengthy ballot voters were presented with on May 6, the runoff ballot will be comprised of just two sets of names to decide between: 

• Sukh Kaur and Mario Bravo (incumbent) in District 1
• Marina Alderete Gavito and Dan Rossiter in District 7. 

Bravo is trying to secure a second term on City Council after he was censured in November for publicly berating former council member Ana Sandoval two months prior. Standing in his way is Kaur, a former teacher who managed to collect 34% of the vote to Bravo's 26% on May 6. 

Meanwhile, the District 7 representative will be a new face after Sandoval resigned the seat this year. Alderete Gavito and Rossiter were the top two vote-getters in the May election, collecting 43% and 21% of the vote, respectively.

Below is how the city leadership is looking ahead of the June 10 runoff.
