Hays County Courthouse, San Marcos, TX – The Hays County Commissioners Court on Tuesday approved county election precinct boundaries, which in turn will allow voter registration cards to be finalized and mailed to Hays County residents who are registered to vote.
The Commissioners Court had approved election precinct boundaries in September 2011, but adjustments to those boundaries were necessitated by the change in redistricting maps ordered by federal courts.
“The changes to the precinct boundaries approved by the Commissioners Court are relatively slight compared to the original boundary map drawn in September 2011,” said Hays County Elections Administrator/Voter Registrar Joyce Cowan. “By law, we had to have our boundaries redrawn by March 20, so we are ahead of that deadline. We also expect to be able to meet the requirements for military and overseas ballots to be mailed by April 14 and new voter registration cards to be mailed by April 25.”
Copies of the map showing the new precincts will be available by early next week at all County Commissioner offices, the first-floor rotunda of the County Courthouse at 111 E. San Antonio Street and the Elections Department at the Government Center, 712 South Stagecoach Trail in San Marcos. It is also available on the Hays County website at www.co.hays.tx.us under the Government tab, Elections & Voting.
Voters who are currently registered to vote will automatically be mailed new voter certificates to replace the ones that expired on Dec. 31, 2011. If you have changed your name or address contact the Hays County Voter Registration Department or call 512-393-7310 to update your information. If you are not already registered, you must register by April 30 to vote in the May 29 primary election.

let's hear for 3 Congressional Districts for Hays county. The failed presidential candidate failed at redistricting, education, the environment, stem-cell treatment secrecy, women's health care, voter disenfranchisement...... too bad he's not on the ballot this year - only his friends are.....
Vote for what? More Republican Party losers who win against smarter and more qualified Democrats.
What's the point in wasting our time? Living in a rural county in Texas and trying to elect intelligent public servants is like trying to rope a horse with dental floss.
Hey Republicans!
Your war on voter democracy and women's rights is going to get you four more years of Barack Obama.
Thanks for the 19th century idiocy.
