Tarrant County slashes polling sites ahead of November election

Tarrant County commissioners voted 3-2 to approve a plan reducing Election Day polling sites by 92 from the 2022 count, downsizing to 224 Election Day sites and 47 early-voting sites. Supporters say the plan ensures voters can vote, while voting-rights advocates warn it could limit access, especially in Black and brown communities. The decision followed hours of public testimony and party-line voting; Election Day is Nov. 3 with early voting Oct. 19–30.
