APRIL 28, 2025 — Tomorrow is the last day to vote early in the upcoming Bexar County May 3 joint general, special and bond election.
UTSA encourages eligible students, faculty, staff and community members to cast their votes at the Main Campus, a designated early voting site. Its polling location in the H-E-B Student Union will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. today and tomorrow.
This election includes the City of San Antonio mayoral race, which has 27 candidates, and all 10 city council district seats. It will also include the Alamo Colleges District bond election.
Additionally, various city and school board positions and propositions for the cities of Alamo Heights, Balcones Heights, Hill Country Village, Hollywood Park, Kirby, Leon Valley, Live Oak, Olmos Park, Universal City and Von Ormy are on the ballot.
Here are some resources to help voters prepare before they head to the polls:
Any registered Bexar County voter may vote at the H-E-B Student Union Bexar Room (HSU 1.102) on the UTSA Main Campus. Free voter parking is available in the northern section of the Ximenes Ave. Lot, just south of the H-E-B Student Union.
The Downtown Campus community can vote early at the nearby Bexar County Elections Office, located at 1103 S. Frio St in San Antonio. Additional polling locations can be found on the Bexar County Elections Department website.
Voters will need to show a valid photo ID or secondary supporting ID.
Curbside voting is available for those who need assistance by calling 210-335-VOTE (8683) in advance. Voters with visual impairments can cast their ballots via the OmniBallot accessible absentee portal.
Candidates must secure at least 50% of the vote to win. If none of the candidates get 50% of the vote in the May 3 election, the top two finishers will head to a June 7 runoff election.
The UTSA Center for Civic and Community-Engaged Leadership empowers students, faculty and staff to engage in meaningful, community-based experiential learning and scholarship. To support voter registration, education and participation, the center coordinates the RowdyVOTES Community of Practice, a coalition of university and community partners that work together to support nonpartisan democratic engagement on campus.
