BriefsOctober named Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Both the Panola County Commissioners’ Court and the Carthage City Commission have proclaimed October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Carthage Mayor Lin Joffrion, in reading the proclamation at the city’s Sept. 28 meeting, said the “crime of domestic violence violates an individual’s privacy and dignity, security and hu-manity due to systematic use of physical, emotional, sexual, psy-chological and economic control and or abuse, including abuse to children’s and the elderly.”

“The problems of domestic violence are not confined to any group or groups of people but cut across all economic, racial and societal barriers and are supported by societal indiffer-ences,” the proclamation reads. “... The impact of domestic violence is wide-ranging, directly affecting individuals in society as a whole here in this communi-ty, throughout the United States and the world.”

SBOE candidate to speak to Democrat Club on Monday

Brenda Davis, candidate for District 9 of the State Board of Education, will be the guest speaker at the Panola County Democrat Club on Oct. 12. The meeting will be held at the Community house in Davis Park starting at 5:30 p.m., and the public is invited.

Davis is a retired journalism and English teacher, a graduate of the University of Texas at Arlington, and a wife and mother of two and grandmother of four.

“I am a product of Texas pub-lic schools as are my children and grandchildren. My daughter is a former dyslexia teacher and is currently a 504 coordinator in the Frisco ISD,” she said.

“Running as a representative on the State Board of Education seemed like a natural progres-sion for me. My goal as a repre-sentative is to give teachers a voice in Austin and to advocate for rural districts,” she added.

The meeting room at the community house will be set up for social distancing, and attend-ees are encouraged to wear face masks, said John Foster, club president. For more information, contact him at (903) 693-8607 or Wanda Gaines, club vice president, at (903) 806-3243.

What You’ll Need to Bring to the Polls

Voters must have one of seven approved forms of photo ID at the polls. Voters who do not pos-sess ID and cannot rea-sonably obtain one can execute a Reasonable Impediment Declaration form and provide a sup-porting form of identifi-cation.

The seven forms of ap-proved photo ID are:

■ Texas Driver Li-cense issued by the Tex-as Department of Public Safety (not required to be REAL ID license)

■ Texas Election Iden-tification Certificate is-sued by DPS

■ Texas Personal Iden-tification Card issued by DPS

■ Texas Handgun Li-cense issued by DPS

■ United States Mili-tary Identification Card containing the person’s photograph

■ United States Citi-zenship Certificate con-taining the person’s pho-tograph

■ United States Pass-port (book or card)

With the exception of the U.S. Citizenship Cer-tificate, which does not expire, the acceptable photo ID must be cur-rent or, for voters aged 18-69, have expired no more than four years before being presented for voter qualification at the polling place. A voter 70 years of age or older may use a form of ac-ceptable photo ID listed above that has expired for any length of time if the identification is oth-erwise valid.

If a voter does not pos-sess one of the forms of acceptable photo identi-fication listed above, and the voter cannot reason-

ably obtain such identifi-cation, the voter may fill out a Reasonable Imped-iment Declaration form, which will be available at each polling location, and present a copy or original of one of the fol-lowing supporting forms of identification:

■ a government doc-ument that shows the voter’s name and an ad-dress, including the vot-er’s voter registration certificate

■ a current utility bill ■ a bank statement ■ a government check ■ a paycheck ■ a certified domestic

(from a U.S. state or ter-ritory) birth certificate

■ a document confirm-ing birth admissible in a court of law which estab-lishes the voter’s identi-ty (which may include a foreign birth document)

The address on an ac-ceptable form of photo identification or a sup-porting form of identi-fication, if applicable, does not have to match the voter’s address on the list of registered vot-ers.
