While Texans will go to the polls on Nov. 2 to decide who will represent them in many federal, state, district and local offices, there are no statewide propositions on the ballot that day, according to Secretary of State Hope Andrade.

Rumors – fueled by an e-mail circulating around the state – of a constitutional amendment on the ballot regarding the homestead tax are not accurate, Andrade said.

“Our office has been contacted by citizens that received or heard of the e-mail,” said Andrade. “We want to make sure people have correct information and are prepared to vote on the issues before them. It is an important election, but there are no statewide constitutional amendments on the Nov. 2 ballot.”

For information about the voting process, Texans are encouraged to visit the Secretary of State’s voter information website, votetexas.org.
