Voter selfies are all over social media right now, but most of them don't include the actual ballot. This is what will happen if you post a ballot selfie in Texas.

Based on the line at my early voting site, the turnout for this election is going to be huge. Once you get inside the polling location, you'll find two small surprises.

Be seen. Be heard. Vote November 3rd.

Early voters can go to any location without worrying about the precinct, and the lines may be shorter than they will be on election day. Those are two big reasons to get it done. If you're planning on casting an early ballot, you've got five locations to choose from in Smith County.

Its been dominating the news for months now, the Presidential election! Tuesday, November 8th a President elect will be picked by the American people and sworn into office January 20, 2017!

East Texans are also heading to the polls to make some big decisions facing their communities, like approving or denying the sale of alcohol in their cities.

Did you remember that today is election day? It’s getting less attention this year because it’s not a presidential election, but there are some important issues on the ballot nonetheless. Don’t forget to vote!
