Early voting for the Nov. 3, 2026, midterm election begins Monday, Oct. 19, and ends Friday, Oct. 30. Residents around the 288 corridor have options in Manvel and Pearland, plus nearby alternatives for Iowa Colony and the Brazoria County portion of Rosharon.

Start with your county of registration

Registered voters may vote at any early voting site in their county of registration. A nearby building across the county line is not a substitute. Check your registration through Texas’ My Voter Portal before choosing a site, particularly if your mailing address says Rosharon or Pearland.

Brazoria County: Manvel and Pearland locations

Manvel: Keith Traylor Criminal Justice Center, Training Room, 6605 North Masters.

Pearland East: Tom Reid Library, Meeting Room, 3522 Liberty Drive.

Pearland West: West Pearland Community Center, Banquet Hall, 2150 Countryplace Parkway.

Shadow Creek area: West Pearland Library, Meeting Rooms 1 and 2, 11801 Shadow Creek Parkway.

Currently, there are no early voting sites in Iowa Colony or the Brazoria County portion of Rosharon.

Nearby alternatives for Iowa Colony and Rosharon

For Iowa Colony voters registered in Brazoria County, the Manvel justice center is a nearby option to try first. Depending on your neighborhood and commute, the Pearland sites may also be convenient.

For Brazoria County voters in Rosharon, consider the Manvel site. The county’s main site is at the East Annex, Room 152, 1524 E. Mulberry in Angleton. Alvin Library, Meeting Room, 105 S. Gordon, is another listed option.

There is no reliable single closest location for every home in these communities. Use the linked addresses to compare routes from your starting point; this guide does not claim a verified driving-distance ranking.

Do not confuse Election Day sites with early voting sites. Iowa Colony’s Public Safety Building appears on the Nov. 3 list, but not on the early voting list reviewed for this guide.

Brazoria County early voting hours

Oct. 19–23: 8 a.m.–6 p.m.; Saturday, Oct. 24: 7 a.m.–7 p.m.; Sunday, Oct. 25: 11 a.m.–5 p.m.; Oct. 26–30: 7 a.m.–7 p.m.

These are election hours, which can differ from a library’s normal operating hours.
