I’m going to revive something I did for the 2006 general election and list all the candidates running in the current election along with links to their websites (if available). This list is based on the Tarrant County generic sample ballot, customized for my own districts and leaving out all uncontested races.

  • Proposition No. 2 – “The issuance of $25,600,000 of bonds for a new district multi-purpose stadium and levying the tax in payment thereof, including the costs of any credit agreements executed in connection with the bonds”

My method for finding websites was to enter the candidate’s name in Google and scan the first page for a result. If nothing looked likely (i.e. the candidate has a very common name), I added the title of the office being sought to the query and tried again. For incumbents without a campaign page I linked to their “official” bio, if one was available.

To find your own districts, look on your Voter Registration card that you should have received in the mail. If you registered recently and don’t have a card, you can look up your registration online via the Tarrant County Voter Lookup application.
