For all Tarrant County polling stations, voters can access accommodations and wait times. Here are three things voters should keep in mind as they prepare to cast their ballots.

Voting wait times are online

Tarrant County maintains a webpage showing wait times at various polling locations within the county. Visitors on the webpage can also access directions to a specific polling place from their current location.

Voters may use interpreters at the polls

According to a website maintained by the Texas Secretary of State, voters who cannot speak English or who communicate via sign language may bring an interpreter to help them communicate with election officials.


The voter may select any person other than the following to interpret:
  • The voter’s employer
  • An agent of the voter’s employer
  • An officer or agent of a labor union to which the voter belongs
The website states if the voter cannot read the languages on the ballot, the interpreter may also act as an assistant for the voter, but they must follow the procedures for an assistant.

If the voter is deaf and does not have a sign language interpreter who can accompany them, the voter should contact his or her local election officials before the election and request assistance.

Curbside voting is available at polling locations

According to the Secretary of State website, if a voter is physically unable to enter the polling building, the following options are available:
  • An election officer can bring a ballot to the entrance of the polling place or to a car parked at the curbside
  • After the voter marks the ballot, they will give it to the election officer, who will put it in the ballot box
  • The voter may also request that a companion hand them the ballot and then deposit it for him or her
Each polling place must reserve a parking space for curbside voting with a sign displaying a telephone number the voter can call or text to request assistance from an election officer. Some polling locations may provide a button or an intercom that a voter can use to request assistance.


Early voting continues through Nov. 1 and Election Day is Nov. 5.
