A.J. LouderbackTexas State Representative, District 30
SB 51 is a Texas law that updates voting rules for people who move within their county. If your address changes but you stay in the same county, you can still vote at your old polling location. You must sign a statement saying you meet the requirements. Your voter registration will then update to your new address within 30 days. This makes voting easier for people who move.
