Application Guidelines

1) Contact the County Judge or Elections Department of the county you reside in to confirm that your registered address qualifies you for the position you intend to run for, and that you meet any other office specific qualifications (often, you must live in the district that you are looking to run for office in for a minimum of one year). 2) Complete the application and fulfill any signature requirements or prepare a filing fee. If you have questions regarding this paperwork, the best thing to do is to call the County Elections office or (even better) schedule an appointment with them regarding any questions. Most elections offices are happy to schedule time for candidates, and it is generally understood that first time candidates will have more questions. 3) Submit the application accompanied by either the application fee or nominating papers within 108-78 days prior to the election. The Texas Secretary of State's elections department is also an excellent resource for election/candidacy questions and can be reached at (512) 463-5650 or http://www.sos.state.tx.us/elections/candidates/index.shtml
