HARRIS, County - As we edge closer to Election Day, a number of Harris County residents have expressed concerns pertaining to the fairness, accuracy, and legitimacy of the electoral process.
In previous years, Election Day in Harris County has been fraught with challenges. This time around, however, ahead of the pivotal 2024 elections, the county has taken significant steps to fortify its election preparations.
Anthony Antonie, a local, recently toured the new state-of-the-art election hub designed to be the epicenter for vote collection and counting within the county. This establishment is a major part of the county's strategy to handle a potentially busy election period.
Furthermore, the new center features a dedicated call center, with a capacity to house over 200 workers who will be on hand to respond to any inquiries posed by voters on Election Day. Importantly, ballots from diverse sources, including those sent through mail, will converge at this center to be tallied.

These measures stand to instill a greater confidence in ballot processing and overall election transparency.
