TX-18: Early voting Sunday for District 18 special election canceled because of weather

HOUSTON — Early voting for the Congressional District 18 special runoff election will be suspended Sunday because of severe winter weather, the Harris County Clerk’s Office announced.

County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth said all early vote centers will remain open Friday and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., but will close Sunday, Jan. 25.

“The safety of employees, election workers, and voters is my top priority,” Hudspeth said. “I strongly encourage voters who are eligible to participate in this election to cast their ballots today and Saturday.”

It’s all because of a winter storm that will begin affecting the region Saturday evening and continue into early next week.
