Cibolo Voter Hub: What Cibolo Creek corridor voters need for Nov. 3

Cibolo is not one voting town — it is two. Most of the city sits in Guadalupe County, but roughly 69.1 acres of Cibolo's corporate limits cross into Bexar County, and which side of that line your street falls on changes your polling places, your drop-off location, and the county races on your ballot.

We've collected the information you need to vote this November 3. Scroll to see state rules, county-specific details, and what's on the Cibolo-side ballot.

Which county you vote in is set by where your home physically sits, not by the Cibolo mailing address or the city name on your mail. Confirm your side by running your exact street address through the Texas Secretary of State's Am I Registered? lookup, which shows your county, precinct, districts, and polling locations. If the lookup is unclear, call Guadalupe County Elections at 830-303-6363 or Bexar County Elections at 210-335-8683. County vote centers serve only that county's registered voters, so a Guadalupe-registered Cibolo voter cannot cast a ballot at a Bexar vote center — and vice versa.

State voting rules

The deadline to register for the November 3, 2026 election was Monday, October 5, 2026, moved from the statutory October 4 date because that date fell on a Sunday. That cutoff has now passed, so anyone not already registered cannot vote in this election. If you are registered, confirm your record is active and still tied to the address where you actually live — a stale or mislabeled address can land you on the wrong county's ballot. You can verify it through the Secretary of State lookup or by calling either county elections office.

Here are the Texas-wide rules that apply no matter which side of the county line you live on:

  • In-person early voting runs Monday, October 19 through Friday, October 30 statewide.
  • To vote in person, you must present one of seven approved photo IDs: a Texas driver license, Texas Election Identification Certificate, Texas personal ID card, Texas handgun license, U.S. military ID with photo, U.S. citizenship certificate with photo, or U.S. passport.
  • For voters ages 18 to 69, an otherwise valid photo ID may be expired by up to four years; voters 70 or older may use one regardless of how long it has been expired.
  • If you cannot reasonably obtain a photo ID, you may bring a supporting document — a voter registration certificate, certified birth certificate, utility bill, bank statement, government check, or paycheck showing your name and address — and sign a Reasonable Impediment Declaration.
  • Voting by mail is limited to specific cases: being 65 or older, sick or disabled, expecting to give birth within three weeks before or after Election Day, absent from your county during both the early-voting period and Election Day, or confined in jail but otherwise eligible.
  • To get a mail ballot, the early-voting clerk must receive your application by Friday, October 23 — a postmark does not count.
  • The mail-ballot application and the returned ballot's carrier envelope each require an identifying number — a DPS driver-license or personal-ID number, an Election ID certificate number, or the last four digits of your Social Security — that must match your registration record.
  • A voted mail ballot must be received by 7 p.m. on November 3, or by 5 p.m. on November 4 if it was postmarked by 7 p.m. on Election Day.

County voting rules

Which side of the line your home sits on determines where you vote early, where you drop off a mail ballot, and which county offices appear on your ballot.

Guadalupe County side

If the state lookup shows Guadalupe County, here is what to know:

  • Early voting runs October 19 through October 30, and Guadalupe voters may cast an early ballot at any of the county's early-voting locations.
  • Cibolo-area early-voting sites include Cibolo Fire Station No. 2 at 3864 Cibolo Valley Drive, Cibolo, and the Schertz Elections Office Annex at 1101 Elbel Road, Schertz.
  • The county's November election notice lists the dates but not day-by-day hours for those two Cibolo-area sites, so check Guadalupe County's elections page before going. The main county elections office is at 3251 State Highway 123 North in Seguin.
  • To hand-deliver a voted mail ballot, the designated drop-off is the Guadalupe County Elections Office at 3251 N. State Highway 123, Seguin — not a polling place — so confirm current drop-off hours before heading there.
  • On the Guadalupe side of the ballot, the county judge, County Court at Law judges, county clerk, district clerk, county treasurer, and commissioner precinct seats are listed as unopposed, and no sheriff or district-attorney contest appears in the certified listings. Unopposed names still appear on the ballot under Texas law.

Bexar County side

If the state lookup shows Bexar County, here is what to know:

  • Early voting runs October 19 through October 30.
  • Typical early-voting hours are 8 a.m.–6 p.m. October 19–23, 7 a.m.–7 p.m. October 24, noon–6 p.m. October 25, and 7 a.m.–7 p.m. October 26–30, with the full site list on the Bexar County Elections Department early-voting page.
  • Bexar's mail-ballot drop-off is the Bexar County Elections Department at 1103 S. Frio St., Suite 200, San Antonio.

City and school information

Every Cibolo voter, no matter their county, will see the same local and statewide items.

Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD has no trustee seats on the November 3, 2026 ballot. Instead, the district's ballot item is a Voter-Approval Tax Rate Election for local operations funding. The board filled its Place 4 vacancy, left by Matthew Short's resignation, by appointing Justin Archbold on September 28, 2026; that seat does not go before voters until November 2027.

Cibolo City Council: The city's November 3, 2026 municipal ballot reportedly includes the mayor's office and Council Places 2, 3, and At-Large Place 7. Check the city's election page for the confirmed candidate roster before you vote.

Statewide offices top every Cibolo voter's ballot regardless of county:

  • U.S. Senator for John Cornyn's seat: Ken Paxton (R) and James Talarico (D).
  • Governor: Greg Abbott (R) and Gina Hinojosa (D), with Pat Dixon.
  • Lieutenant Governor: Dan Patrick (R) and Vikki Goodwin (D), with Anthony Cristo and Kevin McCormick.
  • Attorney General: Mayes Middleton (R) and Nathan Johnson (D), with Tom Oxford.
  • Comptroller of Public Accounts, Commissioner of the General Land Office, Commissioner of Agriculture, one Railroad Commissioner seat, and several Texas Supreme Court and appeals court places also appear on the ballot.

No constitutional-amendment propositions were confirmed on the statewide ballot.

Your to-do list before November 3:

  • Figure out your county first — run your exact address through the Secretary of State Am I Registered? lookup, or call Guadalupe (830-303-6363) or Bexar (210-335-8683).
  • Because the October 5 registration deadline has passed, make sure your existing registration is active and tied to your correct address so you land on the right county's ballot.
  • Note your early-voting window — October 19 through October 30 — and your nearest site, or decide now whether to vote by mail. If you go the mail route, your application must be received by October 23.
  • Decide how you'll vote — early in person, by mail, or on November 3 — and bring an approved photo ID if voting in person.
