The Calhoun County Republican Party has called on the Commissioners Court to consider combining several voting precincts, saying it could save taxpayer dollars.
More information
Calhoun County has one voting precinct with as few as 22 registered voters. State law normally requires 50 registered voters per voting precinct. A review of similar-sized counties showed Calhoun County having more voting precincts.
However, county Democrats and officials say that the county's logistics make Calhoun County peculiar, necessitating more voting precincts. And state law allows voting precincts to exist with fewer than 50 registered voters so long as a petition signed by at least 25 registered voters is filed.
