Your Travis County voting guide for the May 2021 local election


Early voting begins April 19 on elections across Travis County, including the prize fight of the year so far -- the rollback of the homeless camping ordinance in Austin. 

But act fast -- early voting ends in just one week, on April 27, with election day Saturday, May 1!

Below are recommendations The Tracker has put together from various conservative sources with some of our own admonitions thrown in for good measure. Unfortunately, local input has been hard to gather, which is something we hope to remedy in future local elections. Therefore, not every race will have a recommendation. But this year we are including ALL candidates with our preferred candidate(s) or position(s) in bold. Some races have more than one recommendation due to intra-conservative conflicts.
