WACO, TX — McLennan County has added an additional Vote Center to help facilitate voting in the north Waco area.

This new Vote Center is at the St. Louis Activity Center at 2415 Cumberland Avenue, Waco, Texas 76707 and will be open on Election Day from 7am to 7pm.

This vote center was developed at this location as a result of a study done by two University of Houston scholars that, in part, studied the vote patterns of Latinx voters in McLennan County, according to Mary Duty of the McLennan County Democratic Party.

"The study concluded that McLennan County may have disenfranchised Latinx voters in Waco," said Duty.

"We are thrilled that the County Elections office took note of the findings in the study and made sure that we had an additional center for north Waco."
