SAN ANTONIO – Many of those in line outside the Bexar County Elections Office dropping off their mail-in ballots have been seniors, many of which are mobility-impaired.
Bexar County Commissioner Justin Rodriguez, who represents Precinct Two, said he had wanted to give those voters more options.
“But, I couldn’t get everything done that we wanted to.”He said for instance, having several drop-off locations instead of one at the Bexar County Elections Office would have been helpful.
He also strongly urges seniors and mobility-impaired voters, if possible, to take advantage of extended early voting from October 13-30, or request a mail-in ballot before October 23.
Rodriguez said, “I think there’s hopefully some lessons learned here and we can improve moving forward.”RELATED: Here’s how, where to vote early in Bexar County
