Applications for mail ballots must be received (not postmarked) by the County Elections office by the 11th day before election day. Public election records in Texas include voter registration lists (available with restrictions), campaign finance reports filed with the Texas Ethics Commission (searchable at www.ethics.state.tx.us), candidate filings and declarations, and precinct-level election results published by the County Elections office and Secretary of State.
