Is there an online voter's guide for Fort Bend County that discusses the Propositions on the ballot? I have a family member in Fort Bend that needs some guidance. Thanks.

I already voted in Fort Bend, and there were no propositions that I had to vote for.

So one could just vote a straight party ticket and not have to make any other decisions?

Just an update:

I accompanied my relative to the polling station yesterday (Friday) evening so she could vote. We went to the Fort Bend County location on Old Richmond Rd., right off Hwy 6. It was the Four Corners Community Center, I believe. Very chaotic, unorganized situation. The people working the poll were either incapable of controlling the situation or just did not care. They allowed people to walk the line and encourage those waiting to vote for President Obama and they ignored an organized effort to allow groups of people to be moved to the front of the line. Those who complained were simply ignored.

They need to get a better handle on things by Tuesday.

That is horrible, and illegal! We voted at the Cinco Ranch branch library, and it was fine. Long line, but very orderly. No problems there.

I didn't see any propositions for Fort Bend.

I voted at the New Territory Randall's.

If that happened then your relative needs to report it to the county immediately.

I hadn't heard about that polling site but did read about NAACP-related disturbances at other sites, wonder if it's related.
Long waits led to disturbance at polling site, official says - Houston Chronicle

I also noticed some Democrat entity spammed "vote first" general Democrat bandit signs at the front of every neighborhood entry/exit (HOA property) along our stretch of road. Most of them have since been removed, but seriously?

No propositions to vote on in Ft. Bend County, and I agree with swopoe -- election officials at Cinco Ranch Library had their act together.
