Allen voters who wait until Election Day will find five vote centers with Allen addresses on Tuesday, Nov. 3, according to the polling location list Collin County's elections office publishes for the Nov. 3 election. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Three of them are early voting sites that stay open for Election Day:
- Allen Public Library, Meeting Room A&B, 300 N. Allen Drive
- Allen ISD Service Center, front lobby, 1451 N. Watters Road
- Lovejoy ISD Administration Building, Portable No. 1 training room, 259 Country Club Road
Two more open only on Tuesday:
- Christ the Servant Lutheran Church, Fellowship Hall, 821 S. Greenville Ave.
- Allen ISD Professional Learning and Auxiliary Services, lobby, 610 E. Bethany Drive
Because Collin County uses vote centers, a registered Collin County voter can cast a ballot at any of them, or at any of the roughly 90 Election Day locations the county lists from Plano to Blue Ridge. The county's list counts 41 sites that served during early voting and remain open Tuesday, plus 49 that open on Election Day only.
Today is the last early voting day
Early voting ends Friday, Oct. 30. The county's schedule sets today's hours at 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., so the library, the Allen ISD Service Center and the Lovejoy ISD building are open into the evening.
What to bring
Voters must show one of seven accepted photo IDs at the polling place, among them a Texas driver license, a U.S. passport or a military ID card, the county's elections FAQ says.
Except for a citizenship certificate, the ID must be current or, for voters 18 to 69, expired no more than four years; voters 70 and older can use one that has expired for any length of time. Someone who does not have one and cannot reasonably get one has other options described in the FAQ.
Voters who asked for a mail ballot but decide to vote in person must hand that ballot over to poll workers at the site or vote a provisional ballot, the county says.
