Alrighty. Several hours later, and I have Tarrant County's updated early voting locations :D

Overpass-turbo query: overpass-turbo.eu/s/21qx

Actual location info from county (can match up the numbers on the map to addresses): tarrantcountytx.gov/content/da

And a reddit post in the FortWorth subreddit: reddit.com/r/FortWorth/comment

So far, I only have locations that serve (at least) as early voting centers. There are several more pages of day-of voting centers that I could conceivably add. I'm debating building a small, static, mobile website with #Leaflet to perhaps make a "show me my closest voting station" feature, and maybe a "schedule my voting time" feature that spits out an ical file or something. The opening hours are all there in the OSM data.

(Annoying sidenote: most college/university locations are either early vote only, election day only, or not open at all :()

@aspensmonster very nice! I found ballot drop box and voting location tagging to feel extra rewarding.
