Voters must register or update their information today ahead of early voting next month.
SAN ANTONIO — Time is running out for Texans who want to vote in the upcoming May primary runoff election.
Today is the final day to register to vote or update voter information before ballots are cast in one of the state’s most closely watched election matchups.
One of the biggest races on the ballot is the Republican U.S. Senate runoff between incumbent John Cornyn and challenger Ken Paxton.
In the March primary, Cornyn and Paxton finished as the top two candidates, but neither secured a majority, forcing a runoff. Cornyn led by roughly 26,000 votes.
To register, voters must be at least 18 years old and provide a Texas driver’s license, Texas ID card or the last four digits of their Social Security number.
Already registered voters who have moved or changed their name can update information through the Texas Secretary of State website. Mail-in registration forms must be postmarked by today, or voters can register in person at their local elections office.
Early voting for the runoff runs May 18 through May 22. Election Day is May 26.
For Texans wanting a say in who advances to November, the clock is ticking.
