Guadalupe County Elections Office cuts ribbon on new facility ahead of November vote Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) -- Guadalupe County’s new Elections Office isn’t just a new address. It’s being called “a game changer,” giving staff not only the space they’ve long needed but also providing voters with a more accessible, user-friendly place to cast their ballots. Thursday’s ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new elections office was held just in time for the start of early voting later on this month. During a guided tour of the 7,800-square-foot building, Elections Administrator Lisa Hayes shared how this new facility brings “long-awaited improvements for her team.” “The top benefit for the staff is having the room we need to do the job the way that we want to do it. That was one of our challenges before is that there wasn’t enough
space to really do everything as efficiently as we wanted and so this is much more efficient. It’s more comfortable. It’s just a much better working environment,” said Hayes. Hayes says, of course, the new office is also designed with the voter in mind. “For the voters, it’s very similar in that they have more space for voting. They have more parking and it’s just a much more user-friendly facility because it was designed specifically for our needs and it’s going to work beautifully for what we need,” said Hayes. Hayes says one of the most notable changes is that for the first time voters will be able to cast their ballots at the elections office not only during early voting but also on Election Day.
