AUSTIN, TX – Today the Texas Secretary of State’s office released early voting numbers showing that voter turnout for the Nov. 5 constitutional amendment election is on track to significantly outpace turnout in recent elections.
During early voting, the Secretary of State’s office reports daily voting totals for the 15 most populous counties in the state. At the end of the fourth day of early voting, October 24, almost 95,000 Texans had cast a ballot at the polls in these counties. That is more than double the 45,379 voters who voted at the same point in 2011, the most recent constitutional amendment election. It is also more than double the 43,965 Texans who voted by the same point in the 2009 constitutional amendment election.
Early voting began Oct. 21 and runs through Nov. 1.
The Nov. 5 constitutional amendment election is the first statewide election since photo ID requirements for voting in person went into effect. To see voter turnout numbers for early voting in this and past elections visit Early Voting – 2013.

Why Taxes? Why Now?
"We opened up shop here in the Wylie, Sachse, Murphy area in 2018 with a passion to help start-ups and small businesses get on top of their bookkeeping,” Allen explains.
“What we found was a lot of folks just don’t get the tax game. And now that there are new laws and regulations, many are starting to panic; but trust me, small businesses have everything to gain with the new Section 179 Deductions.
“After filing a few late returns, in that first year, we learned that there is a real need for some tax expertise. We spent a good part of 2018 getting up to speed on tax law, and now I am an Enrolled Agent, federally licensed to practice before the IRS on behalf of my clients and anyone else who may be facing the daunting ‘IRS boogie man.’
“During tax season, we are prepared to handle it all.
For individuals we have helped folks with past-due tax returns and work with the IRS to eliminate all penalties... sometimes we given get rid of the tax debt itself.
For companies the biggest problem businesses of all sizes have is filing and paying their payroll taxes - both state and federal - on time. The rules for 940s and 941s are extremely confusing so we have helped a lot of companies catch up.
If they like our work, they sometimes retain us for bookkeeping and payroll.
