Dear Editor, Thank you for the article in last week’s Citizen about the upcoming election and voting.
Texas usually has a low voter turnout, and I wonder why. Ithinkitisimportant that we remind our friends that a voting opportunity is coming up—a civic responsibility, really.
Everyone’s vote matters, especially in races that involve just our area of Texas.
This year there are a number of “down ballot” races that deserve our attention—for state offices that greatly determine the welfare of Texans, but that will likely not get much press.
Readers can get good information on each of the candidates for these offices from the Texas League of Women Voters, lwvtexas. org, vote411.org; and from Ballotopedia, https:// ballotpedia. org/ Texas_ state_ executive_ official_ elections,_2022.
Get informed, make a plan to vote. Vote early if you can—right here in Dublin.
