MARION – Williamson County Clerk and Recorder Amanda Barnes has announced the launch of TextMyGov text alerts.

This is a new text messaging service that will provide Williamson County residents with important information and updates to keep you informed.

You will receive text message notifications on things such as election information, upcoming deadlines, registered voter information, and other relevant items.

You may receive a text notification from 91896. This will be a legitimate text from the Williamson County Clerk. Users can opt-out from all texts at any time by texting “STOP.”

If you do not receive an initial text message, you can choose to opt-in by texting “VOTEWILLIAMSON” to 91896. After sending an initial keyword, users will be asked to reply to the confirmation with a “YES” to opt-in for notifications.

Barnes says Williamson County is excited for this new technology to keep your residents informed.
