In Denton County, during the early voting period, you can
vote at any location countywide, but then on election day,
you have to go to your specific neighborhood precinct location.
A group of voters argued Tuesday morning that that is
confusing.
An organized group of voters say they will spend five
public comment periods trying to convince Denton County Commissioners to
switch to countywide voting on election day as well.
Up to 7,000 people went to the wrong location on
election day, according to the group of election judges.
County commissioners at this point show no signs of changing
plans, especially as we are only four months out from
the November election.
However, volunteers and two election judges still made their case
this morning.
And we establish a consistent idea that you can vote
anywhere in the county, but yet on the last day
to vote, on the last day to vote, we're switching
up the rules.
I mean, come on, guys, that's just not fair.
That hurts my heart when people take the time off
of work, try to leave school to go out to
go and vote, and they get turned away.
This is something we're gonna keep an eye on heading
into the November election.
