In this week's County report, Judge Wade McKinney chats with Election's Administrator Paula Ludtke about changes brought on by redistricting.
Redistricting caused small shifts to the Commissioner Precinct lines and bigger changes to the voter tabulation districts (formerly known as voter boxes). Commissioners Court approved new political subdivision maps as part of that process on Nov. 8.
Now it falls to the Elections/Voter Registration Office to apply those changes to Henderson County voters.
"The past three weeks, we've been going through maps and going through streets," Ludkte said, adding that she and her staff have been breaking out each street in reference to the new maps.
"So you have to go into the software system and go house by house by house especially on the new boundaries," said Judge McKinney.
While going through this process, Ludtke has also come up with a plan to consolidate the County's voting centers from 23 down to 17.
That plan will go before Commissioners Court for approval on Tuesday, Dec. 7.
IMPORTANT: The Elections Office will be mailing out new registration cards to Henderson County voters in January.
