There’s no excuse for East Texans failing to exercise their right to vote

Depending on where they live, East Texans will have the chance to vote in multiple elections over the next couple of weeks.

We believe it’s imperative that all Angelina County residents exercise their right to vote. The winners of municipal elections have the greatest impact on the lives of everyday citizens — they are the ones who dictate the local laws, policies and budgets that affect us the most.

Early voting for the May 7 municipal election runs from April 25-29 and then May 2-3.
