Your Elected Officials
Who represents you? How do you contact your representatives?
General Information.
Guide to Elected Officials.
General Information
Elected officials represent you in all levels of government. As a voter, you have the power to vote into (and out of) office all kinds of representatives, from City Council members to the President of the United States.
You and all of your neighbors in your precinct are represented by the same officials at all levels of government. However, friends who live just a few precincts away may be represented by other people.
In order to determine who your elected officials are, you need to look at the precinct and district numbers on your Texas voter registration certificate. Click here for an explanation of how to find and interpret those numbers. If you can't find your certificate, you can also find your registration information on your county Elections Department website (Dallas or Collin).
Once you know which districts you are in, you can find your representatives' contact information below.
Guide to Elected Officials
For years, the League of Women Voters of Richardson has produced a brochure containing contact information for elected officials at the local, county, state, and federal levels. This brochure, called the Guide to Elected Officials, is updated frequently.
A printable version of the latest contact information for your elected officials is available in our Guide to Elected Officials.
In order to make the Guide to Elected Officials easier to read when printed on 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper, the brochure has been formatted as three-page document. Once the file has been opened, you may print any or all of the three pages.
[NOTE: This is a rather large pdf file, and may download somewhat slowly if you are using a dialup Internet connection. In order to open this file, you will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader, which is available at no cost from http://www.adobe.com].
