*Incumbent


The candidates listed in this guide will be on the May 6 local election ballot in the communities defined by Community Impact Newspaper’s Lake Houston/Humble/Kingwood coverage area. Only contested races are listed. OR All races including uncontested races are listed. Candidates with silhouette photos were not able to be reached before press time.


Texas voters are required to present one of seven specific forms of photo identification before they may cast their ballot.

Under Senate Bill 14, which was passed by the Texas Legislature in 2011 but did not take effect until a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court on June 25, 2013, voters must present one of the following forms of ID to vote:

  • Texas driver’s license issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety
  • Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS
  • Texas personal ID card issued by DPS
  • Texas concealed handgun license issued by DPS
  • U.S. military ID card containing the cardholder’s photograph
  • U.S. citizenship certificate containing a photograph
  • U.S. passport
Voters who do not have a valid form of ID can apply for an Election Identification Certificate at no cost at any driver’s license office. The EIC is valid for six years, but any EIC issued to a voter older than age 70 has no expiration date. Details on how to apply for an EIC are available on the DPS website, http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/driverlicense/electionid.htm.
