Poll Tax Deadline Urgent for Baytown Voters
Editorial warns there is no grace period for poll tax payments in Texas. With only four days left before the January 31 deadline, voters must pay the $1.50 poll tax to be eligible for 1966 elections. Payment sites include local tax collectors and the Harris County tax office in Baytown. If not paid, no vote in any post January 31 election. The piece notes federal challenges to the law but emphasizes that payment is required even if the law is struck down, as registration methods would then change and require time.
