We are using a large number of FWISD schools on Election Day so no school is a good idea.

I heard that one of the concerns with the schools was security and safety for the students. Closing school certainly solves that problem. Also frees up the parking lot

We have 300+ locations on Election Day. Fifty early voting locations.

Total vote as of close of polls yesterday was just under 400,000
just under 30%
