Early voting is underway — Austinites have from now until Fri., Nov. 4 to vote early + skip the lines before Election Day on Tues., Nov. 8. 🗳

No matter who you're voting for, it's time to get out there and vote like you just turned 18.Lollllll

Here are a few tips + tricks to keep in mind before you head out to the polls.

Don't forget one of the seven valid forms of your photo ID — you won't be able to vote without it.
Lyft wants you to vote, so the rideshare company is offering 50% off rides to the polls on Election Day. Use code VOTE22 for a discount up to $10. Pro tip: The discount also works on Lyft bikes and scooters.
Campaigning is forbidden within 100 ft of the polling place, so leave anything publicizing candidates at home.
Make sure you're in line by 7 p.m. Simply queuing up guarantees your right to vote.
If you'd like to bring a guide, make sure it is on paper, as cell phones are not permitted while casting your ballot.
If you run into any roadblocks that you believe may be unconstitutional while voting, call the secretary of state's helpline, 1(800) 252-VOTE. You can also contact Texas voting rights groups at (866) 687-8683 for English or (888) 839-8682 for Spanish.
