Commissioners order Nov. 4, 2025 constitutional amendment election; early-voting site moved to Holy Spirit Episcopal
Summary
The court authorized the Nov. 4, 2025 Texas constitutional amendment special election and confirmed early-voting locations after the usual early site (First Assembly of God) declined for this cycle; early voting will use Holy Spirit Episcopal Church behind Target as a replacement site.
The Commissioners Court on July 29 authorized the order for the Nov. 4, 2025 Texas constitutional amendment special election and set early-voting dates, times and locations. Jared, the county elections official, told the court that the Secretary of State-directed early-voting changes in a new state law technically take effect Sept. 1 but the Secretary of State will issue implementation guidance to counties, so early voting for the November election will be held under the existing calendar for now.
The elections office reported that First Assembly of God, a regular early-voting location, was not available for this election; staff had contacted West Waco Library (often a backup) but the library has a genealogy meeting during early voting. Jared said Holy Spirit Episcopal Church (located behind the Target) agreed to host early voting for this election.
Why it matters: The court’s order starts the administrative process to hold the constitutional amendment election and clarifies early-voting logistics for voters. Jared said that other cities and school districts may call their elections and that the county will coordinate ballots accordingly.
Action: The court approved the election order by motion and set the associated early-voting plans in the record.
