Summary
Frisco’s council voted 5–0 on Feb. 10 to adopt an ordinance ordering the city’s May 2, 2026 general election for mayor and council Places 5 and 6, designating polling places and authorizing election administration by Collin and Denton counties.
The Frisco City Council on Feb. 10 adopted an ordinance ordering a general election to be administered by the Collin County Elections Administrator and the Denton County Elections Administrator on May 2, 2026, to elect mayor and council Places 5 and 6.
A city staff member described the item as “your typical annual, general election,” saying the polling locations would be the same used in recent elections and in the January special election. The ordinance designates early‑voting locations and hours, election‑day polling places and hours, filing deadlines, the appointment of election judges and clerks, and authorizes the mayor and city secretary to take actions needed to comply with election law.
A councilmember moved to approve Item 3; a second was recorded and the council adopted the ordinance on a 5–0 vote. Staff said it would answer any questions about polling logistics and noted that procedures used in the January special election will continue to be used where applicable.
Action and next steps: The ordinance commits the city to administer the May 2 election in coordination with county election officials and sets the administrative details (polling places/hours, filing deadlines, judges and clerks) needed to proceed.
