Hudson ISD Board Extends Early Voting Hours, Appoints Early Voting Administrator and Sets Canvass Date
Summary
The board amended the Order calling the trustee election to extend early voting hours to 5:00 PM, exclude San Jacinto Day (April 21, 2026) from early voting, appointed Barrett Lankford as Early Voting Administrator with clerks, and set May 7, 2026 as the canvass date.
Trustee Reagan McClenny moved and Trustee Chris Smith seconded an amendment to the Order calling the school trustee election to extend early voting hours until 5:00 PM and to exclude San Jacinto Day (April 21, 2026) from early voting because it is a legal holiday. Trustees voted 7–0 to adopt the amendment.
Mr. McClenny then moved (seconded by Mr. Rusty Pitts) to appoint Barrett Lankford as Early Voting Administrator and designate clerks Lee Ann Castilaw, Kathy Mahr, Misty Ratliff, Brandy Nabors, Maria Gonzalez, Ana Servin, and Laura Lyons. The board also appointed Emily Goodwin as Election Judge/Chairperson for the Canvassing Committee and scheduled a special meeting to canvass election returns on Thursday, May 7, 2026 at 6:00 PM. The motions passed unanimously.
The transcript records these procedure changes and appointments; it does not include additional discussion about the reasons for the hour extension or staffing choices beyond the motion and vote.
