Your Voice, Your Vote: Early Voting Is Underway

Early Voting is happening now for the November 4, 2025 Election, and Central Texans have important decisions to make that will shape the future of our communities.

In addition to 17 proposed amendments to the Texas Constitution, voters in our region will also decide on school bond propositions for both Belton ISD and Temple ISD, critical measures that directly impact local education, infrastructure, and economic development.
​
These decisions influence more than classrooms or policies, they affect workforce readiness, quality of life, and the long-term strength of our business community.

Here’s how to stay informed and make your vote count:

1) Educate Yourself:
​​​Review the 17 proposed constitutional amendments and local bond propositions before heading to the polls.

- 17 proposed Constitutional Amendments:

                Vote Yes for BISD Kids

2) Vote Early:
Early voting runs October 20–31, giving you the flexibility to cast your ballot ahead of Election Day and avoid long lines.

3) Engage Locally:
Encourage your employees, colleagues, and peers to vote. Informed civic participation strengthens the foundation for thriving businesses and vibrant communities.
 
The Temple Chamber of Commerce remains committed to promoting informed civic engagement. Thriving businesses depend on strong communities and strong communities depend on active, informed voters.

Make your plan to vote early, stay informed, and help shape the future of Temple, Belton, and Texas.
