Diana L. McRae, County Election Officer
The mission of the Walker County Elections Department is to conduct fair elections, execute procedures, and provide for accurate and timely election results. We firmly believe it is our duty to treat each voter with respect and dignity. We believe in creating a safe place for voters so they can exercise their right to vote in a polling place with a non-intimidating, supportive environment. We believe in making all polling places fully accessible. Most importantly, we believe that all voters have the right to cast their ballot independently and in secret. We want to increase public confidence in the electoral process with the highest level of professional election standards, integrity, security, accuracy, and fairness. To that end, we pledge our continuing effort.
On Monday, January 13, 2025 , the Walker County Commissioners Court unanimously approved a resolution supporting the Countywide Polling Place Program and using electronic poll books in future elections. The Countywide Polling Place Program has been in place in Walker County since November 2020 and allows voters to cast their ballot at a location of their choice on Election Day. With this program, Walker County has seen an increase in voter confidence and turnout as it allows those to vote at a polling place that may be more convenient for them or one that best fits their needs. The resolution also supports the use of electronic poll books, which helps with the ease of check-in at all polling places and ensures voter transparency.
