Voter Guide

Schertz polling location to be closed for election Guadalupe County voters will not have a central polling location for the Nov. 7 election. The Guadalupe County office located on Elbel Road is closed for renovations. Commissioners approved in February an office space allocation form that relocated county departments housed in the closed building to the Guadalupe County Services Center located off FM 78. On July 11, commissioners also approved a construction manager at-risk contract with Tejas Premier Building Contractor to oversee the renova- tion of the Elbel Road building. Commissioners will work with the contractor on the timeline, project scope and total cost of the project. While other services will be available at the Guadalupe County Services Center on FM 78, the center will not serve as a polling location.

Schertz voters to pick 3 council members During the November election, council places 3, 4 and 5 will be on the ballot, which are held by Jill Whittaker, Michael Dahle and David Scagliola, respectively. No incumbents have submitted appli- cations to be on the ballot, meaning the city will have three new council members following the canvassing of the votes. Eight candidates will be on the ballot, with the Place 4 Council position making up half of those candidates. Should a candidate not receive the majority vote, the election will result in a runoff where the top two vote-getters will be placed on the ballot. New members of the City Council will be sworn in following the canvassing of votes. Elected officials will serve through Novem- ber 2026.
