Early voting will begin Oct. 19 and end Oct. 30. Election Day is Nov. 3.
The total number of registered voters in the county has dropped by more than 13,000 since the 2008 Presidential Election. In that election, 162,375 people were registered.
"Amendment elections are not near as busy as other elections," Ms. Long said.
Voters throughout the county will decide on 11 propositions to amend the Texas Constitution. In Temple, voters will decide on an alcohol issue. The Belton and Moody School Districts are seeking bonds.
If successful, the Temple alcohol election would open the city to sales of all kinds of alcohol, including hard alcohol sold in liquor stores. The election also seeks to remove the requirement that some establishments selling alcoholic beverages must operate as private clubs. In July, a local pub owner described the private club requirement as an "expensive bureaucratic burden."
Voters in Belton ISD will decide whether to back the district's attempt at securing $29 million to build a new 145,000-square-foot middle school off Avenue D. The proposal is a scaled down version of a $38.9 million bond voted down in May.
District officials believe a low voter turnout contributed to the unsuccessful election. Less than 7 percent of registered Belton ISD voters made it to the polls in May.
In Moody ISD, voters will decide on an $11.5 million bond and a school board trustee position. The bond would pay for improvements at each campus in the district and would include adding classroom space and upgrading technology.
Eddie Newman and Staci Stone are vying for a single trustee position.
The only other jurisdiction to have a special election item will be Troy, where residents will decide whether to reauthorize the city to apply a .25 percent sales tax to raise money for maintaining and repairing streets.
