Local elections shape your streets, schools, and neighborhoods — whether you notice it or not. In this episode of Pretty Prissy Chronicles, Elisabeth Anumele breaks down who holds power in Houston, why voter turnout is so low, and how small, local decisions impact daily life.

From city councils to school boards, judges to DAs, and flood control to public safety, Elisabeth shows why your vote matters every election, every year — not just November. Learn practical ways to engage, discover Houston-specific examples, and get motivated to participate in early voting, which ends February 27, and on Election Day (March 3).

Your voice, your city, your power — it all starts with showing up.
