Curbside Voting is available to any voter who has difficulty walking or standing for long periods.  

 If you have an assistant with you, when you arrive at the location, have them notify the election official at that time. The election official will then bring your ballot to your car outside the polling location. If you do not have an assistant, please call  (830) 997-6518 ahead to notify the voting clerk that you want to vote curb side.
