Nov. 7 will play host to municipal, school and the state constitutional amendments elections in Texas.

CBS19 has compiled a list of local races East Texans will vote on when they hit the polls.

Early voting takes place Oct. 23-Nov. 3.

There are seven forms of acceptable photo identification one must have in order to vote:

  • Texas Driver's License issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)
  • Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS
  • Texas Personal Identification Card issued by DPS
  • Texas Handgun License issued by DPS
  • United States Military Identification Card containing the person’s photograph
  • United States Citizenship Certificate containing the person’s photograph
  • United States Passport (book or card)

For voters 18-69, the acceptable form of photo ID can be expired for up to four years. For those 70 or older, the acceptable form of photo identification may be expired for any length of time.

"If you do not possess and cannot reasonably obtain one of the seven approved forms of photo ID, you may fill out a Reasonable Impediment Declaration (RID) at the polls and present an alternative form of ID, such as a utility bill, bank statement, government check, or your voter registration certificate," the secretary of state's office said.
