Several amendments focus on funding for water infrastructure, dementia research, and financial support for technical colleges.Proposition 10 garnered the highest voter backing, proposing a temporary reduction in property taxes for homeowners whose residences succumb to fire damage.Among the unofficial results reported late Tuesday, Proposition 6, prohibiting new taxes on securities transactions, and Proposition 17, allowing the government to stabilize property values in counties with border security enhancements, displayed the closest contest.Early tallying reflected significant support across the board for the propositions, indicating a committed electorate shaping Texas' legislative landscape.
