Uncle Sam's Citizenship & Immigration Services wrote:As a Permanent Resident you can only vote in local and state elections that do not require you to be a US citizen. It is very important that you do not vote in national, state or local elections that require a voter to be a US citizen when you are not a US citizen.


How do I find out which is which & how/where do I register?

be a U.S. citizen;
be a resident of the county;
be 18 years old (you may register at 17 years and 10 months);
not a convicted felon (unless a person's sentence is completed, including any probation or parole)
not declared mentally incapacitated by a court of law


Admin - please change my vote from "undecided" to "no" :(

I know zero about the candidates or issues. I haven't lived out here long enough to get a grip on what is good/bad about who is serving already, and the local papers only seem to talk about the road situations/development problems on the front pages...not that I scour those little papers for info, though.

So I am too uninformed to cast a vote. :?

Lantana residents can vote for the Denton ISD Board of Trustees and a Texas Constitutional Amendment that caps school property taxes for homeowners 65 years and older and those who are disabled.

Ditto Smokey. I know none of these people and have not lived here long enough to care.

Lantana residents will vote at Copper Canyon Town Hall. Check your polling place here: http://elections.dentoncounty.com/go.as ... 2&Link=292

Bartonville residents can attend a Meet-the-Candidates forum at Town Hall on Tuesday at 7:00 p.m.

If you live in Double Oak, don't miss their Candidates Forum - sponsored by The Cross Timbers Gazette - this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Double Oak Town Hall. Both mayoral candidates and all five council hopefuls are expected to attend.
