To vote in Texas, one must be registered and the last day to do so is Oct. 11 in order to vote in the Nov. 8 Presidential Election. One is eligible to register to vote if: they are a United States citizen; a resident of the county where the application was submitted; at least 18 years old on Election Day; not a convicted felon (one may be eligible to vote if you have completed your sentence, probation, and parole); and have not been declared by a court exercising probate jurisdiction to be either totally mentally incapacitated or partially mentally incapacitated without the right to vote.
