Here's What You Need to Know in Texas Today.

04/22/2024

DO YOU WANT A TAXPAYER ADVOCATE AT TCAD?

What if I told you we could have three taxpayer advocates on the Travis Central Appraisal District Board of Directors in two weeks.

All that is required is that you go vote starting today.

The Texas Legislature passed a law requiring that 3/9 board members on appraisal district boards in large counties be elected starting this year.

If you are tired of taxpayers being mistreated, valuations out of control, an appeal system that is broken, and sweetheart deals for connected Austinites then please GO VOTE for our taxpayer advocate slate:

Place 1: Don Zimmerman
Place 2: Matt Mackowiak
Place 3: Bill May

We will fight to bring transparency and accountability to TCAD.

Please share!

Anyone in Travis County who is a registered voter can vote. This is a non-partisan election.

Early voting: Monday, April 22 - Tuesday, April 30 (M-Sa 7a-7p, Su 12-6p)
Election Day: Saturday, May 4 (7a-7p)

Find your nearest voting location here: https://elections.traviscountytx.gov/current-election-information/current-election/.

Sample ballots, polling location wait times, voting rosters, and more are available.
