I haven't seen any virtual trainings for Dallas unfortunately, but you could probably take an online training for a different county in Texas and go from there. You don't have to live in the county you take the training in and it's pretty much the same process statewide

For anyone in Denton County looking to register as a Volunteer Deputy Registrar, the process is really easy! I just took a quick training class and assessment online (took maybe 30 minutes total). Next, you just need to take the completion certificate to an office in Denton to get your ID and supplies. Here’s the link: https://www.votedenton.gov/training-education/volunteer-deputy-registrar-program/

FYI sites like vote.org are causing some confusion with Texas voters. There's an option on there to register to vote, and it says "This will take 2 minutes." But after putting in your info, they give you the option to either print and fill out your own form or have them mail you a completed form to then mail in to actually register. (Edit: It is easy for folks to overlook this part and think they've registered) THERE IS NO ONLINE VOTER REGISTRATION IN TEXAS It is best to direct people to https://www.votetexas.gov/ where the site actually explains the voter registration process. Much less likely to result in folks thinking they've registered to vote online.

Before moving to DC, I was raised in the mid-cities in DFW, and worked on Texas campaigns for a few years (after being SO inspired to take action by Beto in 2018) and worked for the Dallas County Democratic Party until earlier this year! I love love love Texas and am so happy there are so many amazing volunteers like y'all helping flip it blue. Blexas soon!! 💙

it’s a kamala ad that was a pretty generic campaign ad so i don’t remember all the details but i remember it was her talking about what she wanted for the country and it showed different people and a guy greeting his daughter at the front door.

holding back texas dems is voter disenfranchisement and now UT Austin is losing a on-campus polling station and when A&M did that there was a 23% drop in turnout.

I've got the disenfranchisement myself -- I live in Houston, and for some reason the mayor wasn't on my ballot when I went to vote.

If you want to get it done faster you could do the Travis county one that’s online and you get a cert emailed like the next day from my recollection. And then you just have to bring it to the right person in Harris county, but they have to recognize it reciprocally

The thing is, I've already done it so I'm just trying to figure out why I didn't receive a cert yet in the mail. This is good though, gives me an extra option!

If they are open to a conversation or open to being swayed I would send them and talk to them about the reasons *why* they won't vote for Kamala, 'Republicans for Harris' is on Twitter/X and facebook and have plenty of former congressmen and women at all levels of government even at the state and mayoral levels saying they are voting for her, depending on the demographic there are also unions and labor groups like LULAC (hispanic based) who have endorsed her

Another volunteer had some very helpful advice regarding situations like this here: https://discord.com/channels/1242249109298221066/1242249109298221069/1276170683658797106 In general, the campaign is encouraging us to practice active listening, and really trying to connect with the person you're talking to on a personal level. Ask them questions, and like Chris says in the comment I linked to, leave them breadcrumbs to follow and reach their own conclusions. Sometimes just gently showing support for a point of view your neighbors may not have considered can move the needle a bit and sometimes it's not necessarily the person you're talking to who's being convinced, but someone else in the room who's listening. I will also add, that our energy is best focused on reaching folks more likely to support and making sure they are registered to vote and that they show up! It's entirely possible for us to make big strides in Texas simply by increasing turnout. Get those who don't usually vote to do so and we can really turn the tide in Texas!

Thanks Gillian! I read Chris’s comments and in many ways they reminded me of when I was interviewed by Newsweek for an article on the Chinese telco giant, Huawei. I found responding to negative report based questions with a simple “Why not?” and then turning to facts that, for instance, showed in a Kinsey Report actually commissioned by Newsweek that American companies led by CEOs with military service outperformed others. Opening the door to thought with some very edible breadcrumbs. The problem was Newsweek’s mind was already made up. The article had already been written. The interview was merely to cite a conversation with me as a C-level member of Wireless Marketing. You are right. With minds closed or resistant to any discussion, maybe the best thing to do is simply encourage voter turnout. I’ll keep trying!

I get that feeling. I turned 18 just in time to vote for Al Gore in 2000, and I haven't forgotten how it felt for that election to be decided the way it was. I haven't forgotten all that happened in the years that followed. I don't know about the validity of those rumors, but if it were true... ...it would be a good way to court Anti-Trump republicans. This convention is not all about celebrating everyone who speaks. It's about winning folks to the cause. We're here to make sure Kamala Harris and Tim Walz get elected, and we have to set aside our differences and come together in order to make that happen.

George Bush would be the worst option to win people over considering stuff like the Iraq War. If they want some surprise Republican endorsements id rather have someone like Mike Pence or just no Republicans at all.

Trust me. I loathe Trump and republicans. I thought Walz was a perfect VP pick and wanted Biden to step down so Trump would lose. However the idea of the DNC giving Republicans multiple slots to speak and not a single Palestinian-American then to top it all off have someone like Bush speak would be too much for me. I still think Kamala will win because democrats have finally stopped trying the “when we go low, we go high” nonsense and have rightly called republicans weirdos. Also Trump is incapable of shifting his campaign strategy to adapt to Kamala and seems to miss Biden which is funny.

I don't know who is all slated to speak but I would be surprised if he did, honestly. So I am going to just see who is up to the mic. You're right about Trump's failure to adapt -- it has been a colossal train wreck for him

Of course, there is the Democratic Party Platform. It is online and in PDF form. Those policies will correspond to campaign. To the Republican part, we have good resources regarding Republican Support for her, so I would start there. Go to Reach to find Republican Support for Harris. <:blueheart:1252803082849488956>

The platforms online that I’ve been able to find are either from 2020 or they mention a second Joe Biden term. Do I just not have a the right link? I would hope for this be resolved sooner rather than later so it isn’t so confusing to simply direct people to one true platform.

Finally, in an attempt to be more helpful without over-sharing other info, I did happen across this event, which reminds me of the pivoting to counter misinformation training. This event is led by a volunteer in IN, but it is likely to be similar in terms of talking to conservative people, given that both states are conservative. There is only one time slot so far. Hopefully, it will work for you. https://events.democrats.org/event/465597/

They're a wonderful group, and--on a personal note--I got my VDR training through them earlier this month 💙 Unfortunately, due to the big blue "Donate" button at the top of the page, we are unable to allow that specific link on this server. If they have a link that doesn't mention fundraising you can absolutely share that and I would encourage you to do so! Apologies again for all the confusion 💙

Hi Allison! I'm in Dallas county and I'm planning to get reciprocal certification for VDR in Collin county! (I need to call and make that appointment today--thank you for the reminder 😊) For ways to get involved locally, I hear good things about: • Collin County Democrats (You might consider [becoming a precinct chair or working with your precinct chair](https://www.collindemocrats.org/what-is-it-like-to-be-a-precinct-chair-democrats-collin-county/) to turn out voters in your neighborhood) • Richardson Area Democrats • Powered by People is doing some great work, too. (As I can attest from personal experience!) You also might consider reaching out to the campaigns for local candidates as I'm sure they could point you in the right direction! I hear that the race for Ted Cruz's senate seat is actually within the realm of possibility this election 👀 so that might be a good one to collaborate with. I think we all remember Cruz running off for a little vacation while the rest of us froze in our homes 🥶 Sure would feel good to give him the boot! 😉

Hey for the PxP text team if you know anything about that team, do you have to be VDR certified?

Thank you for your question The Poynter Institute for Media Studies, established in 1975 in St. Petersburg, Florida, is a non-profit journalism school and research organization. It owns the Tampa Bay Times and operates the International Fact-Checking Network and PolitiFact. Their methodology for fact-checking is detailed here: https://www.politifact.com/article/2018/feb/12/principles-truth-o-meter-politifacts-methodology-i/. The Institute maintains web pages for political figures and social media outlets, which track PolitiFact fact-checks. These checks typically begin with statements that gain media attention or appear in online postings. I accessed candidate pages (here is Joe's https://www.politifact.com/personalities/joe-biden/) and lists of mainstream social media pages, then recorded the fact-check results in a spreadsheet, then graphed it. This specific graph exclusively represents data from presidential candidates, including Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Donald Trump, and J.D. Vance, so the party affiliations are factual and not based on opinion. The media data is aggregated from various sources with combined fact-check scoring from platforms and figures such as X Posts, Facebook Posts, Instagram, Viral Images, Bloggers, TikTok, Threads, PunditFact, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Rachel Maddow. Each source has its respective PolitiFact page, ensuring the scoring is accurate as of last weekend. All this data has been categorized under the umbrella term "Media" and is neither scored as Democrat or Republican.

I just got an email about a nearby registration event - ooh that's already at full capacity for volunteers! 🎉 - that says: "You don't need to be a VDR to volunteer with us (at this event), we'll make sure you have everything you need to successfully register voters with us!" That said, that may not apply to all events PLUS the training isn't long and we really can't have enough VDRs at this point lol

replying to 2024-08-26T22:38:56.549+00:00 by KingGuru [TX] Hey for the PxP text team if you know anything about that team, do you have to be VDR certified? Im thinking about doing the VDR training anyways but they weren’t clear on the specific to me because don’t the text team send forms if needed for registration, and wouldn’t that fall under what VDR people do?
You do not need to be a VDR for PxP texting. Jump in. They need more volunteers to work on the voter registration text team.
2024-08-28T02:30:26.199+00:00 by 🌶NeuroSpicySheri [ neurospicysheri ]
We registered voters at Texas State today with Beto. If you’re near a big university, check to see if he’s coming to your campus. You don’t have to be a VDR for these either, but it’s helpful. We had about 15 VDRs and 5 non VDRs working.

There's no specific role or tag for any of the cities, but the search function is super helpful for finding posts regarding a specific topic. Mentioning the city in your post will make sure it's easily searchable for folks coming in later! <:blobLoudSpeaker:1278209125448290428>

I believe the rules are that non-official events can be shared in <#1268426751164551199> AND the state channels to which they correspond so you should be good. If you wanted to be super-safe you could post them first to <#1268426751164551199> and then post a link to the message here, but I believe that is only necessary for sharing non-official events outside of these channels

Yup, my sibling was removed! PROTIP: I've been directing folks to their local library for a voter registration form, as "updating" it online just means you have to wait for the mail-in form to get to you. At least this way, you only have to send it off!

2024-09-03T21:52:48.934+00:00 by Melanie L [TX] [ melanie_30995 ] 
Serious question here: Does anyone have any idea why Colin Allred's campaign spots aren't directly addressing Ted Cruz' terrible policies and failures for the people here in TX? Or why he's not joining forces with someone like Jasmine Crockett, who has a lot of momentum going? It just seems like there's a goldmine of opportunity there that he's not taking advantage of. I really want him to win this one so we can get Cruz out, you know?
2024-09-03T21:55:06.44+00:00 by Jess • Mod [ barbie_is_jess ]
Huh... I've gotten texts from both Beto and Jasmine's behalf re: Colin. Most of the ad spots I've seen have been focused on Cruz's impact on women vs TX in general, but that could just be me?
2024-09-03T21:55:43.162+00:00 by Melanie L [TX] [ melanie_30995 ]

2024-09-03T23:50:52.776+00:00 by thegreatyeehaw [ thegreatyeehaw ]
Yea in Austin the only political ad I've seen is the one where cruz is dragging Allred about the border, but of course they gotta omit the part where he voted against the border bill 😔

It took me over a month to get my VDVR sorted out here in Houston. They didn't mail me my cert for over 2 weeks (expected delivery 10 days), then they didn't respond to my email for almost a week, then mailed me a packet with someone else's name on it. I finally had to go downtown and just do it in person. They said they were super busy was the reason. I hope that was the reason and not this whole voter suppression thing.

Another interesting point - in Bexar Co alone, there are around 368,000 potential Democratic voters... that's more than Cruz's last win margin! So voter registration efforts in every county are essential! 🎉

replying to 2024-09-06T15:28:12.628+00:00 by Mlep • Lead Mod It took me over a month to get my VDVR sorted out here in Houston. They didn't mail me my cert for over 2 weeks (expected delivery 10 days), then they didn't respond to my email for almost a week, then mailed me a packet with someone else's name on it. I finally had to go downtown and just do it in person. They said they were super busy was the reason. I hope that was the reason and not this whole voter suppression thing.
😬 yikes... glad you went in person, to be sure! But there are so many people getting involved as VDRs this time around, I'm really curious to see the numbers after 10/7! 👀

Hi Martin - Great to see your excitement!
You should be able to search in <#1268426751164551199> or filter by location for local events here: https://www.mobilize.us/texasdemocrats
There are also lots of virtual events and teams you can volunteer with by searching

Absolutely! (And I get the shift struggle.) You may want to click through because many events have multiple times available. I also volunteer with Texans For Kamala... we're doing a statewide phone bank this wkd, let me see if I can find you a local contact who can provide guidance!

Hello! I'm Caroline. While I'm Manhattan-based, I'll be flying back to Galveston County, Texas in October because I'm registered to vote there. I judged that Texas needs my vote more than New York State (although I do fight for downballots there too). I am also a writer and member of the Vietnamese community. Do we have any Vietnamese Harris supporters here? Unfortunately, large populations of Texas Vietnamese are ardent Republican-Trump supporters and are exposed to disinformation campaigns about Kamala Harris. So Vietnamese (and fellow Texas Asians) should connect with me. And I do think it's important for non-Asians to be aware of the disinformation amuck in our communities.

Gooood morning <#1268378299428634727> ! Take this with a big grain of salt (and a bunch of motivation to turn out voters!), but the poll-based website 270towin just posted it's latest map and guess what?? TX is showing as a tossup (margin <5%)! (Keep in mind, this map updates 3x daily, this is ONLY a snapshot of polling as of Sun 9/8 8pm EDT.) Not linking in case of pesky donation buttons, but the site has an interactive map you can play around with!

I’ve been making calls and knocking on doors for Colin Allred’s Senate campaign, and while folks are excited to be voting against Ted Cruz, not enough are familiar with Colin. Turning out the vote is a lot more reliable when people are voting for something. If you want to help spread the word and get your fellow Texans excited about the alternative to Ted, virtual phone banks are happening every day.

Thx for the tags, mod team! Hi <@1211542714932396032> and <@425699119756083201>... I'm volunteering with Texans For Kamala. We just spent the last 3 days figuring out independent in-person/virtual phonebanks, (thus playing catch up lol) so I have plenty of resources & best practices for anyone who wants to set up their own pb or jump in with us - we're in locations across the state and will be joining the Harris campaign, doing weekly calls on Mondays. (Which means we're not necessarily calling Texans.) As for Colin Allred & other TX-wide campaigns, I'm still in the process of getting connected and hope to find out what they need - but there are really great GOTV campaigns like Beto's PXP and others, so if anyone wants *info that can't be shared on this Discord per campaign finance laws* ..... 👀 ..... shoot me a PM and we can talk offline. (Hoping that's acceptable lol <@763374129772363776> please advise if not.)

Some info on TX statewide races - PLEASE NOTE: PER FEC LAWS, WE CANNOT ALLOW ANY LINKS WITH DONATION BUTTONS: (US Senate) Voting for Colin Allred could be a HUGE win for holding the US Senate! Plus send a huge sign to Ted Cruz, who officially has the most vulnerable seat in the GOP. * Events/Volunteer Opportunities: https://www.mobilize.us/texasoffense/ (US House) Michelle Vallejo is running for US House (for TX-15) in a heavily gerrymandered district that stretches narrowly from Seguin down through Floresville, Alice, to McAllen. This is a SIGNIFICANT race for Republicans hoping to keep the House majority. * 😭 I need to find a contact in her campaign, there is a donate button on every page so we can't link to "michellefortx15" at all (TX Supreme Court) There are also 3 TX Supreme Court candidates who could have huge impacts on things like abortion; lgbtq+ rights, protections; etc.: - DaSean Jones - Christine Weems - Bonnie Lee Goldstein (Progressive GOTV) Beto's Powered By People campaign is going full-speed until the 10/7 voter registration deadline! If you're local, check out their TONS of volunteer opportunities getting likely Dems registered/motivated: - https://www.mobilize.us/poweredxpeople/ As for other races - there's a really cool (org) website *I can't link to* called Common Cause where you can find a personalized list of your districts to get involved with your local candidates! 😉

No worries, you're welcome to show up! Sorry for the confusion. The debate officially begins at 8pm CT - many events are starting at 7:30pm, but it depends by location.

Appreciate the understanding 🙏🏼 + another workaround (protip for paywalls): search for the article on yahoo news - they're an aggregator so if it's big enough, they should have a link where you can read/share without issues!

Yes, Texas does allow vote by mail. In this official channel, we can only share Texas dot gov resources so one moment.

https://www.sos.texas.gov/elections/voter/reqabbm.shtml To be eligible to vote early by mail in Texas, you must: be 65 years or older; be sick or disabled; be out of the county on election day and during the period for early voting by personal appearance; or be expected to give birth within three weeks before or after Election Day; or be confined in jail, but otherwise eligible. The republican legislature unfortunately passed a bunch of restrictions on it though

Saw that earlier. Pretty blatant voter suppression to try to win congressional/ state legislative races in South Texas. No other reason why they would be investigating “voter fraud” in an area that has swing heavily toward republicans

Hey there! Just catching up, but I get the concern- maybe you can go with a friend or try early voting? (Starts 10/21-11/1 and there are MUCH smaller crowds, so it should be an easy in-out in person experience.) You can also bring a document that proves your residence as backup if that helps with any anxieties - like a rental agreement.

Am I being a worrywart? I subscribe to Native news online because I am half Native American. The disrespect shown the Native community by Tim Sheehy in Montana hasn't even been addressed by the Harris/Walz campaign. And that senate seat is crucial to keeping the democratic senate. Harris and Walz need to (even briefly) appear on that reservation and the campaign needs to see that the Native vote is not being taken for granted or we'll lose the senate and be hamstrung by republicans. Again. How do I get the attention of someone who can get this message to the Campaign managers?

On this National Voter Registration Day, I found that my League City, Galveston County, Texas ballot ALSO has this city council election and city propositions. Always check your CITY (not just county) election site to see if you have anything. I say this because Trumpian Qanoners have taken advantage of low-turnout local races.

https://www.votetexas.gov/mobile/voting/voting-in-person.htm Early voting locations will be populated in our search site "My Voter Portal" two days prior to the first day of early voting. Here, you can enter your Name, County, Date of Birth and ZIP code to look up your registration information and find your nearest polling location. You may want to contact the Early Voting Clerk for State and County Elections in your county for early voting locations. Also, many newspapers publish early voting polling locations.

Hi <#1268378299428634727> Fam! I volunteered to organize the Women’s March here in Dallas on November 2nd and it got approved by Women’s March Inc on Monday. They are marching on D.C. same day and time. I’m working on the permit to host it in Dallas. City Hall Plaza and the Ronald Kirk Bridge are booked. My team is checking with Klyde Warren Park. I could use some help. Please DM me if: 1) you know of locations that could be suitable in the city for a special event / March like this? 2) you are able to help or have connections to others that might be able to help. I’ve added the event page, do sign up and share with friends. Once the location is solid we will start pushing media content for voting and marching! https://action.womensmarch.com/events/we-won-t-go-back-dallas-march-in-dallas-texas Cassie IG: DanceDanceCass

A little tip for downballot engagement: Tell your family/friends that voting for downballots helps the infrastructure of a Kamala Harris administration. I consulted my FB city Pantsuit group on the League City, Galveston County ballot propositions and city council. Honestly, we're confused by them, but it's a start to even talk about them. And sometimes, getting out the downballot (even in nonpartisan races) can help the presidential ticket.

If it helps, I was worried about mailing it in and it arriving on time, so I just went to a VDR event to update my address (last Thursday, I think?)... I just checked - mine is all nice and shiny and updated already!

I’ll have to see if my town is having any of those. I haven’t heard or seen much, but there’s usually one at the mall. I’ll have to pop by there and see. 👀 Thanks for the advice! I updated my license online, so I updated my registration then. I’ll have to check it later and see if it went through.

Water mostly goes to ag, and mainly livestock. And many farms are using inefficient irrigation methods for their crops.

Wow okay... that was somewhat infuriating (bc blatant praise of voter suppression efforts) but overall a good read! "Ahead of its May convention, the Texas GOP had just five employees — compared to 50 at the same point in 2020, the last presidential cycle. Last month, the party reported that its 2024 convention ran roughly $600,000 over budget and resulted in a staggering, $382,000 loss. From mid-May until early September, the Texas GOP’s most important fundraising position was vacant. And in its last financial disclosure, from June, the Texas GOP reported having $2.3 million on-hand — $1 million less than at the same time in 2020." "[Texas GOP Chair Abraham George] spent last weekend in South Texas, which he and other Republicans see as critical because of a handful of competitive races. There, former Republican U.S. Rep. Mayra Flores is running a well-funded campaign against Democrat Rep. Vicente Gonzalez — one of a few races that could decide control of the U.S. House. And in state Senate District 27, Adam Hinojosa is challenging Democratic Sen. Morgan LaMantia in a rematch of a 2022 race that was decided by roughly 700 votes." [Travis County GOP Chair Matt Mackowiak, who ran against George for party chair this year and organized last week’s open letter by county Republican leaders, said:] “The state party appears completely unprepared for this immensely consequential election and we all need the Texas GOP to raise its performance,” he said. “Immediately.”

My first volunteer experience with a campaign was for Vicente Gonzalez in 2017. When he switched districts was when the seat got filled by the first GOP candidate in the history of the district (over 100 years) 😓

Exciting moments of the rally: *🎻 SA mariachis playing us all in - they played el rey and rinconcito!! So cool to hear such puro Latinx vibes and the whole crowd singing - at an event with a national delegate! *Ran into LOTS of volunteers from different local groups! *Cristela Alonzo - del valle - (first Latina to have her own show on national tv) was ON FIRE!! 🔥 and Gen Z activist Olivia Julianna was so hyped - she's super active online, and only a first-time voter! *The Castro brothers Joaquin & Julian (with son!) along with Greg Casar spoke about fighting voter suppression and electing those who will fight for access to healthcare! "We won't stand by while they try to rig the system!" *(SA) Mayor Ron came out to talk about why local elections are so important... and how Doug Emhoff & VP Harris came out and listened to our needs during the pandemic and made sure our food banks could provide for our communities... while Cruz & Abbot worked for themselves instead. *Local TX-house candidates Kristian Carranza & Laurel Jordan Swift spoke about providing for our SA neighbors, our students, and the importance of making our voices heard at every level of government! *And Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff "let me brag about my wife" spoke so passionately about his support of his wife Kamala!! He says: Keep the enthusiasm going for the next 43 day - YOU have the power!

2024-09-27T03:33:31.373+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
He’s running as more moderate and doesn’t have to worry about low base enthusiasm because it’s a presidential year. He also doesn’t seem to plan on visiting every county, which was admirable but didn’t have much of an effect on the vote margins. https://www.texastribune.org/2024/08/29/colin-allred-senate-campaign-strategy-ted-cruz/

I can't link them due to campaign finance rules, but Powered by People does a ton of voter registration stuff. I'm sure they have multiple opportunities to get involved before the deadline! Thank you so much for registering voters!!! <:blueheart:1252803082849488956>

2024-10-03T01:46:33.322+00:00 by Alex is Tired - MOD [ tiredforever ]
i think what they mean is, saying that Allred is 101% guaranteed to win means we dont' have to give any effort. because he'd be 101% guaranteed to win. what makes more sense is to fight as if Allred is losing, because while Allred is making progress, the race isn't over and it's a close race for sure.
2024-10-03T03:03:57.476+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
Yeah no point in investing in an uncontested race or the race to succeed Allred in the house
2024-10-03T03:07:18.07+00:00 by Caroline [ maximinalist_carol ]
Do we got any Galveston County, Texas voters like me? I use the wonderful nonpartisan Vote411, but it mysteriously doesn't have the Senate profile. Vote411 is great, but sometimes it misses some important races, so sometimes you have to look directly at your CITY/COUNTY election sites to catch those local races. I'm also trying hard to understand my League City propositions. But I barely see any support from my county Democratic party. And Downballots are important.
2024-10-03T03:38:14.966+00:00 by Alex is Tired - MOD [ tiredforever ]
no you're not alone. it doesn't have anything for my area at all (last i checked) in terms of early voting. i was able to find that info through Texas's voting site. but i honestly attributed that to being i live in a teeny tiny town north of Dallas
2024-10-03T12:06:42.729+00:00 by Caroline [ maximinalist_carol ]
So a great rule of thumb is that Vote411 is good but also check with your COUNTY and CITY-specific election websites, cause it might miss things early on.

Charts, graphs, info. It's a lot but here are some takeaways: - Registrations rolls are outpacing Florida, North Carolina, and Georgia - Registration is surpassing population growth, “a sign that more than just new Texans are signing up to vote” - Texas added almost 2.6 million voters — the size of Connecticut’s entire voting rolls - Republicans strategists say Texas is “at risk” of following other Southwestern states like Arizona and Nevada - In 6 years Dems flipped: 12 Texas House seats, 2 Texas Senate seats, and 2 seats in Congress - Causing R’s to redraw congressional and legislative districts in the latest redistricting cycle - As Harris County gets bluer, statewide margins get tighter - R’s still have rural West and East Texas, but aren’t adding new voters at the rate of Harris County and the blue spine

Feel free to delete this but I like these types of analyses and I think it’s important to understand Texas politics. It’s also important to note how conservative DFW and Houston suburbs are. Tarrant county is rather conservative for how urban it is, barely voting for Biden in 2020. DFW’s Collin County was among the most populous counties to vote for Trump in 2020, even though Trump’s margin was only 4 points, almost 30 points lower than Romney’s in 2012. Therefore, there’s a good chance Collin flips blue this year. Montgomery County, which contains suburbs north of Houston, gave Trump 70% of the vote and a margin of almost 120,000, which I believe was his largest in the country (mostly due to the prominence of the oil and gas industry around Houston). However, this was also much lower than Romney’s 80% in 2012. Although the DFW and Houston metro areas have shifted significantly toward Democrats, there is still a lot of work to do.

I like the optimism and there’s a chance of it happening (though by then Kamala will be over 350 electoral votes) but it’s important to understand that it’s a lot more expensive to organize in Texas than Georgia since it’s a lot larger and you have to do much more in Spanish (not saying that’s a bad thing, just that it makes it more expensive). Although the state Republican party’s increasing extremism should push away moderate voters, there are many Republicans that have moved in from states like California because of it (my parents know some and I’ve overheard some conversations). I have also read that their harmful policies have also pushed some marginalized Texans out of the state, especially trans Texans. Again, I’m not saying it won’t happen, but it’s important to understand the state of things. It can help us focus our efforts and set realistic expectations.

No it’s true. What’s happening in real time is more important than any theoretical numbers. Texas is a very expensive market as it’s pretty much one of the most vast states in the union (I know Alaska’s bigger, but I feel like you could visit fewer places and get Alaska compared to Texas where you’d have to visit a LOT of places.) I do think if it ever breaks blue and can stay there, it could very well become a Dem stronghold like California and NY currently are, or a consistent swing state.

sadly, something i've had to start considering myself. i don't like it, but i don't feel safe here, either. i can't get up and move just anywhere, i don't have the means or funds, but there's several places iv'e been looking at. there's options. just gotta take it one day at a time.

The fact we’re seeing political ads for a presidential election for the first time in years tells me internal polling on both sides says there’s a chance we flip blue. Add to that Ken Paxton trying so hard to keep us from voting. Another thing to remember is incremental change is still change. Even if we can’t flip the state, if we can send a few more democrats to the US house and the Texas legislature, that would help. Firing Ted Cruz in favor of Colin Allredd would be even bigger.

On this day 4 years ago, a record 3.3 million Americans cast their ballot early. And as expected, only 1.7 million early votes have been cast (a 45% decrease). Please use the link below or call the Democratic Voter Assistance Hotline 9am-9pm (EST) (1-833-336-8683) to request an absentee ballot, or make a plan to vote early or on election day. https://iwillvote.com/

I wonder how many Texas Republicans will pull the plug on Trump and vote for Harris and how that will affect the election results.

Looked up what happened to their predecessor and it’s completely unacceptable that we have statewide officials doing stuff like that. For more context he was one of the republicans Abbott endorsed primary challengers against because they refused to take tax funds from our severely underfunded public schools (among the lowest per student spending in the country) and give it away to rich private school owners. And Sid Miller (ag commissioner) ran an awful ad against them

How do I register to vote? There are several options to submit a last-minute application by the deadline: Visit the voter registrar office in your county (find yours here) Register through a volunteer deputy voter registrar (organizations like local chapters of the League of Women Voters often hold voter registration events) Mail the application to the voter registrar in your county If you decide to mail an application, it must be postmarked by the Oct. 7 deadline for you to vote in the Nov. 5 election. You can request the postmark through employees at your local post office. Applications left in mailboxes or mail drop off boxes may not always be postmarked that same day. You can find an application at county voter registrars’ offices and some post offices, government offices, or high schools. You can also print out the online application and mail it to the voter registrar in your county. This will require an envelope and postage like regular mail. Download your application here. https://www.texastribune.org/2024/10/04/texas-voter-registration-2024/

Following up to my own question - I called the Secretary of State (the number I found on votetexas) and was sent to the elections dept of my mom's county where I was told that only the last/married name was required and to not include the maiden name at all. The clerk even looked up my mom's voter registration to double check and said it was okay to exclude the maiden name. So, the more we know. 🌈 💫

It’s great that you are wanting to encourage others! You are representing so that is the first step. Next steps would be to find out what your peers do care about. Where do they see themselves next year? What do they want their life to be like when they turn 21- whoever we elect this year will still be president then. WHO do they care about? WHO do they see as worth caring for? They might not care about politics, but to (mis)quote Tim Walz, it sure cares about them. You can ignore climate change, but it won’t ignore you. You can not care about health care for yourself when you’re young, but what if someone you love gets sick? What kind of air do they want to breathe, clean or polluted? What would they want to happen to their mom if she miscarried and couldn’t get health care? Politics is personal. So listen to their concerns, and explain why voting makes a difference on a personal, day to day level. Politics the word is based on policy - laws and budgets that affect everyone. Do you let someone else decide what’s best for you or do you find out what your generation wants and have your voice? That’s my best mom advice, Malachi. And Im proud of you for being willing to give yourself to this cause!!!

Remember: To change the constitution of Texas, two thirds of the legislature must agree to an amendment to be put on the ballot. The GOP is one seat short in the senate, and 14 in the house. YOUR VOTE DOES MATTER!!

If anyone here lives in Tarrant County, please vote out the far-right commissioners this November. We cannot continue to have a far-right government suppressing the vote in such a large county (Texas tribune has a good article on county judge Tim O’Hare, which I’m not sure if I want to post because of how awful the things he’s said and done are)

oop I was offline - but as <@623298709530214412> said! (We actually - unknowingly lol - ran into each other at the Emhoff rally!) It's actually been super interesting, there's def parts that are deep blue, but even in the N outskirts that were SUPER MAGA even 4yrs ago, you hardly see any GOP signs! And in so many blockwalks and calls that I've made, there are lots of GOP/Conservatives who are just fed up and are voting Democrat!

It’s based on a model since party registration doesn’t really exist here. You can “affiliate” yourself (so people can’t “participate in the affairs” of more than 1 party but it expires at the end of each year https://www.sos.texas.gov/elections/laws/advisory2022-11.shtml
2024-10-15T23:32:41.121+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
Because I doubt that many people “affiliate” themselves each year and primary turnout is pretty low

I'm likely preaching to the choir here, but if anyone has thought to purchase Allred merch or make a donation to his campaign, doing it during the debate or immediately after can be its own sign of support.

Hey <#1268378299428634727> ! Now that you watched the big Senate Debate, I really hope you'll join me and other Texas Democrats in our statewide phonebanks to talk to as many TX voters as possible before Election Day! We know this is gonna be a tight race, with national impact, so we need as MANY volunteers as we can get to TURN TEXAS BLUE!! We have shifts Tues-Thurs evenings and Sat/Sun throughout the day. Find all the phonebank info and signup links per week here: [Calls For Colin](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uf9a-DN720GRs27EFfEiT0QqzPIFjtLJtv47g08Y7a8/edit?usp=sharing) - and THANK YOU!!

Another thing is that he said Cruz voted 100% with Nancy Pelosi from 2018-2022 but the speaker of the house usually doesn’t vote (they do sometimes since they have the right to do so)

Personally I would be kind of surprised. The only time I can recall her coming here is to accept a union endorsement in Houston. She’s really busy and has a lot of other places to be, not only for the campaign but also for her duties as VP. I know Doug’s been here a few times and I wouldn’t be that surprised if another major surrogate like Bill Clinton (who had the best performances in the state since the last time a Democratic Presidential Candidate won it (Carter in 1976), losing by less than 5% in each of his 2 elections). He did better than any democratic candidate since then has in the rural south, though I’m not sure how much of that appeal he still holds since Hillary didn’t do too well. Surrogates are an issue here though since the last democratic officeholders left office in 1999, so most are either very old or dead.

Hi friend! It is very important to take care about spam numbers and texts, I agree! Because your message includes a specific phone number and this is a very large server, for security and privacy reasons I must remove your post. Thank you for the alert!

When was that? She lost reelection to Bush in 1994 and died in 2006.
2024-10-18T18:05:54.094+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
But because of how many people have been born and died in the past 34 years a lot (maybe even a majority) of people in Texas were not even alive when she was elected. 34 years is a pretty long time (much longer than I’ve been alive)

Especially in politics. That same year Clinton and Gore were reelected governor and senator in Arkansas and Tennessee

From what I remember of Ann Richards as a youth, it was 1988-94, so this was likely 80s. I am listening to a live Zoom right now, so I cannot listen to the audio of the video. Ann Richards was a legend and her daughter Cecile is a leader in the PAC area, formerly National at Planned Parenthood. Thanks y'all.

I had to get through the paywall, but here are the takeaways: - Texas added nearly 200k voters in the two weeks before the deadline - Since 2016, when Donald Trump first won Texas, the state has added 3.5 million voters (equivalent of Wisconsin’s entire voting population!!) - Since 2020, state population growth is about 1.6% - Texas is adding voters at a 10% increase and includes those turning 18, transplants from other states, aggressive registration efforts by partisan and non-partisan groups - 2020 Biden vs Trump was the closest race in Texas in almost 30 years and the 9th closest in the country - Fastest voter registration growth by county since 2020: Harris (over 200k) and Bexar (106k)

Please help I have been recovering from surgery due to an accident in July. I walked with a cane now. Prolonged standing is very painful. Do you know if there is an express line for disability? I know there are drive through lines but Texas Republicans have made very few of those and the lines can be hours long from what I have read in the news in the past. But NOTHING not even my Pain will stop me from casting my Vote that's for sure!💙🇺🇲✊

From the vote Texas website- Curbside Voting If a voter is physically unable to enter the polling place, he or she may ask that an election officer bring a ballot to the entrance of the polling place or to a car parked at the curbside. After the voter marks the ballot, they will give it to the election officer, who will put it in the ballot box. Or, at the voter’s request, a companion may hand the voter a ballot and deposit it for him or her. https://www.votetexas.gov/mobile/voter-with-special-needs.htm

Early voting starts this Monday and I couldn’t be excited!! My brother and I plan to go vote this Friday since I have my medical assisting Externship and my brother works throughout the week so we made the plan to go vote early this Friday and cast our vote for the future president of the United States Kamala Harris and for Allred so Cancun Cruz can go back to full time podcasting 🤭🤭

Hello! This is unrelated to voting, but I thought may be helpful. I was the same with prolonged standing and only had a cane for a long time. I found that if I was going somewhere where I knew there was little seating or I was going to be standing for a period of time I knew would be difficult, a rollator really helped. They're a little clunky get in and out of trunks, but the built in seat was a lifesaver when I needed it. ❤️

I have made a song with AI to encourage those citizens to empower themselves and vote no matter what. I’m about to screen record it, make a Tik Tok with Kamala’s famous She Podemos and post it here. I want as many people as possible to share it when it is out. The new sensational song needs to gain momentum tomorrow and spread into Florida to magnify the voters that Trump disrespected so badly in Univision.

Stay tuned for when I post the link. I encourage everyone to do a couple Duets so that more people know they are not alone and their attempts to silence Mexican or Latino voters will be in vain.

💙 HAPPY EARLY VOTING, TX! 💙 🎉 Remember, you CANNOT use your phone while voting! So to avoid last-minute confusion/forgetfulness (like me 😅), come prepared: https://www.vote411.org/ballot puts out a nonpartisan Voter's Guide where they ask candidates the same questions. This is what it looks like via mobile - easier via laptop - you can get a personalized list of your ballot races with: office descriptions, campaign finances, what (if) candidates answer, and mark your choices to print / take with you. (They've made scrolling on your phone easier but... I have 40 races on my ballot. Save yourself & scroll via laptop lol!) Last thing: Hours vary by county.

A very reliable, good friend of mine just finished pollworker training and she texted me this.....Just finished Poll Manager training! I passed all the classes. I want you all to know something...if you are checking in at the polls and they happen to write anything on your ballot before they give it to you to put in the voting machine...a letter, a checkmark, a star, an R or a D any writing of any kind...please request a new ballot. Your ballot could be disqualified if it is written on. Please be on the lookout for this type of behavior.

Just a pro-tip if you are in Collin County. In 2022, the library/courthouse in Melissa was a very fast process and short line for voting. Even if there are a bunch of people out for early voting, I can’t imagine a ton of people in Anna or Melissa being out since they’re smaller areas. Also, the Frisco Fire Station off of Rolater Rd was also pretty easy in 2020, although a bit busier.

Hey friends, four years ago, we sent President Biden to the White House with one of the largest popular vote margins in history, thanks to support from all 50 states, blue and red alike. A bigger margin makes it harder for Trump and MAGA Republicans to challenge the election. The work we do in these last two weeks is crucial. Visit: https://iwillvote.com/ Call: Democratic Voter Assistance Hotline (833-336-8683) Let's ensure Kamala Harris is elected!

Just spent like 15 minutes exploring what a hypothetical democratic win in Texas could look like out of curiousity (thinking about it since I’m about to go vote). I just took the 2016-2020 swings from NYT for the counties containing major cities and their suburbs (since that’s where most of the votes will come from) and multiplied them by 1.647 (1.647 * 3.4 (2016-2020 swing) = 5.6 (Trump’s 2020 margin), then added them to Biden’s 2020 share (cnn). Didn’t want to spend too long on a hypothetical so I didn’t use super precise numbers and didn’t consider population changes (which means the necessary vote shares will be lower). The third party vote share will likely also be different, but it’ll be a lot easier to look for a percentage than a margin. Dallas - 69.8% Harris Tarrant- 56.9% Harris Denton- 55% Harris (flip) Collin- 57.7% Harris (flip) Williamson- 57.9% Harris Travis- 76.6% Harris Hays- 64.3% Harris Bexar- 62.4% Harris Harris- 57.1% Harris Ft Bend- 58.5% Harris Montgomery- 32.9% Harris Deviations in larger counties will have a larger effect. Putting them here in case anyone wants them and so I can find them easily. Someone else has probably done a more detailed analysis somewhere, but I haven’t seen it.

I spent like 15 minutes so I didn’t consider demographics. It’s very rough because even if I spent like 2 hours considering all of those things the numbers would be different.

Here’s a little pre-made prediction tool where you can adjust vote share and voter turnout amongst different demographics and see how it affects the election map.

Just whatever changed from 2016-2020 multiplied by how much more it would have had to change for a win to see what to look for when results start coming out (demographic results will come out later)

I've had several conversations like that <@161475441654235136> ! I've been canvassing and calling some pretty red areas around my city and TX in general. We definitely want to encourage ANY voter who wants to vote their conscience or for the good of the (country/state) over party! They don't have to vote straight Democrat if they don't believe in that. But EVERY vote to get Ted Cruz out of office / keep Trump out counts, especially from the MANY Republicans or Conservatives who agree that he is no good for Texas! I would *highly* recommend they look into getting a personalized sample ballot from www.vote411.org/ballot - it provides a non-partisan voter guide where you can compare candidates' responses to standardized questions side-by-side and make their own decisions.

Just voted! Had like 2 hours blocked off but the line was less than 10 minutes. Not sure how to feel about that. On one hand I got to vote pretty fast but on the other hand I’m worried about low turnout among college students (basically the only people who use the station I went to)

There are signs outside by a pretty busy path showing that it’s an early voting location. But I guess a lot of people aren’t really paying attention to the signs they walk by

It does help.. and I'm certain he would NOT vote for Ted Cruz other than he doesn't want Democrat control of both White House and Senate... I would love to get Cruz out of office as well, but keeping Trump out of the WH is higher priority I suppose. I just wasn't sure if there was a good answer, other than I didn't think the Senate would stay blue with or without Cruz, the numbers are against Democrats this go-round. Anyway, at least he isn't and never will be a vote for Trump and will be a vote for Harris/Walz, and believe me, we are all in the minority in Burleson, TX workplace (those of us not stumping for Trump) so I will take what I can get!!

Mart said they just were not doing any early voting, and they do not know if they will have a voting center open on Nov 5th. Unfortunately our next closest voting center is 30 minutes away.

Whoever is in charge of setting up the voting centers. The lady at the school admin building didn't give any names, just said they were not approved to open early voting in Mart TX. They did have early voting for the 2020 election. So when I scooped up some folks to go by and saw the building closed (even tho it shows it is a early voting site on the website) I called the Mart ISD administration where the voting is normally held, and that's what the lady told me.

DFW is a bit over 1/4 of Texas’s population if you include some rural counties. With those 4 it should be about a fourth. 4*189053 (numbers from Stephen Dial, who works for the local Fox affiliate) = 756212.

replying to 2024-10-22T00:43:17.138+00:00 by VolCanix Aquatix Worx Just letting yall know they have not allowed some of our smaller Texas towns to open early voting this year. Which is hurting alot of folks abilities to get to the polls. Mart said they just were not doing any early voting, and they do not know if they will have a voting center open on Nov 5th. Unfortunately our next closest voting center is 30 minutes away.
Mart crosses two counties, doesn't it? Limestone and McLennan according to wiki.

Not gonna stop me lol I'm still gonna go vote, but now I gotta bus more folks out there than I had originally thought x x I have a sub compact so I'm gonna be making a few trips out there. All for the cause though. Just wanted to drop this information here incase other folks from the outskirts of Mclennan county couldn't find out what the deal was with our voting out here.

Democrats can win keep hold of the senate as long as they nominate good candidates. Good candidates beat republicans 75% of the time if you look at the Likely Tossup seats.

I wonder if the polls are including these almost 700k voters who may be pivotal. I really don’t see any TX Biden 2020 voters not showing up for Harris. However, I could see a loss of support for Cruz/Trump voters. It just really depends on the amount.

It’s beautiful. I feel like they represented the beginning of the end of the Republican chokehold and unitary rule in the south. I love them for that. Even though they lost their races, they’re activating people and making them believe in democracy. We need more Betos and Staceys in the other southern states, and we will get them. I swear the south has some of the most suppressed and disgruntled populations, waiting to be activated for change.

i have, and my feedback is: get there early. like _early._ hours early. since it's a Harris rally it's going to be TRIPLE-packed, and they'll probably have to send away people if it gets too full, so the earlier you are the better your odds of getting in also, bring a handheld fan and snacks.

2024-10-23T00:15:34.825+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
Since Texas’s population has grown, I would expect there to be more votes even if the % turnout stays the same. But since other states are also breaking their records, turnout should be higher than 2020. A quick google search shows 2020 turnout was 66.8% so I think turnout this year may be like 75%

The rate is of US citizens 18 and older so if you just look at registered voters the numbers will be higher

"The 2024 vote totals are likely far higher because data from more than one dozen counties is missing from the state's website as of last check." 😮

I feel like turnout is also just people finally caring about voting (no matter what party they vote for) and they now know their vote matters (since the 2016 fiasco into 2020 with Georgia flipping). Couple that with the mid to late Gen 18-21 year olds that can vote now turnout is spiking in so many states!

I don’t expect Texas to flip but if this is true and there’s a lot of Harris voters in deep red counties turning out it’s not good for Trump. It could flip turnout could flip it

Part of that shift was because Obama is from Chicago, which literally touches the border between Illinois and Indiana, and did really well in other nearby states. Wisconsin went from D+ 0.4 to D+13.9, Michigan went from D+3.4 to D+16.4, and Illinois went from D+10.3 to D+25.1. It’s also a good example of how trends aren’t always permanent as Indiana also voted for Trump by almost 20 points in 2016 and 16 in 2020. So if Texas flips it’ll be interesting to see if it stays blue like Colorado and Virginia did and stays or reverts like Indiana did. The thing with Georgia and Arizona is that their populations are concentrated in one metro area (Phoenix and Atlanta) making large shifts more likely. Basically if a shift happens there it affects the vote a lot more, as there isn’t really another area for a different pattern to counteract it. In Texas DFW shifted a lot more than the Houston area did between 2016 and 2020, and we actually had a lot of counties in South Texas, as well as parts of Houston, shift heavily toward Trump. If all of Texas shifted as much as DFW (only counting the 4 major counties here), Biden would have won the state. Georgia shifted 5.4 points, 3 more than the national shift. Colorado actually shifted a lot more, by around 8.5 points, 6 more than the popular vote. So shifts large enough for Texas to turn blue, even if the popular vote is the same as 2020, are still possible. So let’s say Harris’s support for the border bill and economic arguments reverse gains Republicans made among Hispanic voters in texas and the suburbs continue to get a lot bluer. Then she has a good chance. The question is how well Trump will do with Hispanic voters and how well Kamala will do in the suburbs.

And I may have messed up my math a bit now that I’m looking at it. Biden may still have lost by a fraction of a percent

I think it would stick in Texas. Its metro areas have been growing with new, young, college educated voters, who tend to vote more Democratic. Same with Georgia. They may go through a time of being fiercely competitive, but if Atlanta, Houston, DFW, Austin, and San Antonio keep growing, there won’t be going back because the cities will outgrow the rural areas in these states. The only way to stop it would be to either voter suppression and prevent out of state residents from moving in, or change strategy. However, some of the Republican parties antics are getting closer and closer to being unelectable in Texas.

Wow! That is dedication and a long drive, and we'll be so glad you came to visit H-Town! I don't think they've announced the exact location for the rally yet but my bet is on Toyota Center. I'm wondering if our native Queen <:beyonce:1286004151175614616> will also happen to be in town that day as well. Wishful thinking, but it's possible.

Yup! There's several people in here who did PXP I believe - Beto hit almost every college in TX basically, he's a powerhouse! It's actually really interesting seeing how the program has/continues to evolve... and I really do believe that it has helped change the dynamic in TX and pushed the needle in considerable ways!

Oh I know. His run in 2018 was the beginning of the end of unilateral Republican rule and they’ve been fighting like hell to keep control. I don’t think they’re going to be able to hold on much longer.

Latinos are incredibly diverse and we come from countries that have a lot of colorism baked in (thanks imperialism!) so there’s often a disconnect between their own political standing in both their native country and the USA
2024-10-23T18:17:29.619+00:00 by Chat P. (TX) [ pumaclone23 ]
for example, my mom is half white & native, but she looks “whiter” than her neighbors so she was seen as pretty and had more privilege
2024-10-23T18:21:32.133+00:00 by Chat P. (TX) [ pumaclone23 ]
But that immediately evaporated once she moved into TX, as she was clearly Latina, and lumped in with the rest of the Hispanic voting bloc. She has no problem with it and prefers it that way anyway, she’s Democrat 100%, but other members of my family have cognitive dissonance about the conflicting political identities of being both Mexican and American. And therefore feel they should be regarded as “White” and feel like Trump’s talk about illegal immigrants, hatred of Latinos, and etc etc….don’t apply to them because they were White™️ in their native countries, no matter how true that might be or not, but it’s a mix of colorism and racism and also idiocy that makes Republican Latinos vote against their own interests
2024-10-23T18:23:34.225+00:00 by Chat P. (TX) [ pumaclone23 ]

<@1224254275933179926> Very well put. I never could understand why Gregg Abbott's wife who is a Latina with Relatives who were Immigrants & she is considered the First Latin American First Lady of Texas would allow such ugly views & Statements from her husband who worships dump. Yes the Border has issues no thanks to dump standing in the way to fix it. Too bad she could have been a good advocate for solutions & understanding with the place she holds in Texas.

As a Beyonce fan, if her mother is showing up probably not, I believe she was seen in a car LA earlier this week, BUT I wouldn’t doubt some type of social media post or video to Harris expressing support at the rally! Ms. Tina and Beyonce do have their non profit and give a lot of grants to small businesses like hair salons for years

Personally as a fan I’ve been surprised B hasn’t said anything but Ms. Tina has posted about voting/ early voting for the past few weeks and even showed herself watching the DNC, so something may be on the rise soon from Bs personal account!

replying to 2024-10-24T15:14:15.453+00:00 by Chelsea W. (HTX) I signed up to volunteer for the rally immediately but haven’t had any contact back since - anyone know when confirmation is going out?
Same here, maybe a mod knows.

<@958395273313411153> As Early as Possible. You may be in line for awhile. I don't know what City you are in but you may want to call your County Democratic office bc there may be busses taking supporters to the Rally & you will get in a little quicker. I have attended big Rallies in the past and that's my experience. Good Luck & Happy for you going!💙🇺🇲✊

I took Friday off so I could vote in Houston in the morning, and after hearing about the rally figured I'd go to that too. Now with Beyonce's appearance I might not even get in.

That's going to have to be my plan! Also, yesterday in this channel we discussed the possibility of VP's event being at Toyota Center which seats 19k. Maybe with the Beyonce announcement it will be at NRG that seats 72k.

i keep seeing mention of people saying it's to try and turn Texas blue. while i'd LOVE to see that, and this IS a lot to pull in for Allred, i don't think it's to flip Texas. ...then again we saw what happened with Swifties, and with how famous Beyoncé is...<:eyes:1225448907585355819>

It's a sign of strength if she has the resources and can schedule an event out of the swing states. I do think it's for the down ballot races since her presidential accomplishments will be determined by a Congress that, you know, works.

I also heard that Tim Walz will be in Kentucky. That doesn't mean Kentucky is in play, but they have school vouchers on the ballot and he might discuss that.

Likewise, VP will no doubt discuss the abortion ban and remind us that it was a Texas woman who helped Roe pass to begin with (iirc).

I ordered a $30 custom one on Etsy and it was gone in under 24 hours in Plano, TX. I of course replaced it and also bought my neighbor one. Then I placed a camera in a tree facing it. Luckily it is still standing today.

My take is twofold: 1. Collin Allred has a long shot chance to beat Ted Cruz, and when you get a shot at a senate seat AND beat Ted Cruz, you take it. 2. BEYONCÉ - this is now a national event, taking over the news cycle for Harris in a positive way. It’s much more than a regular stop, and I imagine this was the plan before it leaked. It’s a good way to let the swing states breathe for a day before going all in next week, which is what I’m assuming the plan is.

#2 is especially true. There has been so much focus on the swing states even Obama mixed up Nevada and Arizona this week.

Hi there, I'm not from Texas, but I just wanted to tell you all to keep working hard, and even to work harder than ever! Because I've got a gut feeling that something unexpected will happen on Election Night to change the entire race. I believe that some state will flip a certain way nobody expects, and if I have to guess at specifics, I would say that it's going to be Texas turning blue. 😎

On a serious note, please do not pull the “do you know who I am” card with security/secret service on your way into the venue. There’s been a record number of donors and volunteers for this campaign and we could easily fill a venue with just those people but this is open to the public and it is first come first serve. VIPs and special guests will have separate communications with the campaign.

replying to 2024-10-24T19:24:16.209+00:00 by Mlep • Lead Mod It's my understanding that the call will come from what looks like a local number, but I'm not 100% sure on that. I'm waiting for a call, too.
Do you know if the calls are just for attending or for details about volunteering? I signed up to volunteer but haven’t heard anything yet so just curious

Hi! I RSVP’d to the campaign rally in Houston tomorrow the confirmations say more information to come- but little is being shared. It doesn’t show address/venue. it doesn’t give information on arrival time, etc. anything on logistics or what to do/expect. I emailed to ask and no response. Not sure if anyone here has insight?

i feel it. my dad refused to drive me out to a rally back in 2016 because "i voted for Trump" (he has since turned very anti-Trump so that worked out)

2024-10-24T21:48:26.559+00:00 by Sailor Moon 🌙 [TX] [ sailormoonchan7101 ]
Cuz I don't like Trump. His name and the mention of him as well as Project 2025 makes me sick to my stomach. He didn't do anything during his first term. He won't do anything except make things worse. Kamala Harris is a prosecutor and a senator. She cares about everyone. She will Make America Great Again.
2024-10-24T21:50:06.724+00:00 by Sailor Moon 🌙 [TX] [ sailormoonchan7101 ]
Our future depends on who we vote for. You vote for Donald Trump your life will only get worse. You vote for Kamala Harris, your life will get better.

Omg you have to fly to Houston early in the morning. And then drive to the rally 😳 that’s dedication.

Since Kamala earned and was nominated as the next democratic presidential candidate I knew that she was going to make it big in Texas. Before she made Freedom her campaign song I knew that Beyoncé was going to be involved. Never did I doubt that she would come to Texas. I knew Texas would be on her agenda. It’s time to flip the script and turn Texas blue 💙.

Houston traffic is no joke especially finding a spot to park once you get there. Should be there I’d say by 2:00 pm.

The email you get confirming your “tickets” has all the info. Pretty standard stuff- no reusable water bottles, only small bags etc

I dunno that their count is that accurate. Stadium holds 22,000 though if all sections are open.

So... someone might correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought they were all non-transferrable. At least at other events, I'm being advised to tell people that anyone +18yo must have their own registration, for security.

Same for me. I claimed more than one ticket and invited some friends, but nobody was able to come so I have unclaimed tickets. I’m sure they’re giving more tickets than can fit and it will be first come first serve. I’m also open to giving them to anyone who needs more while we’re waiting. I’m sure it’ll still be a packed stadium.

No, there’s no option to cancel. I use the chat support to ask about releasing tickets and the only option is to sell or transfer both of which are not options for this type of event.

It seems that two tickets is automatically the default number of tickets, but the instructions say that they are only letting in RSVP'd people. The people I invited all have signed up for their own tickets under their own email and name. When they did, the ticket app was automatically set to two tickets for them as well.

I signed up for this to see Harris. I don’t really care to see Beyoncé to be honest. I have work until 12:30 today so I don’t think I can make it on time so I’ll probably bail on it now 😦

If you are in Houston area, the lines may be long, but they've been prepping these events to make sure to get as many people in as possible! It's (potentially) still possible!

2024-10-25T16:51:24.201+00:00 by Alex Haller [TX] [ d_ah ]
you can't transfer extra tickets. They have to RSVP and get their own tickets so that their names are on the list when security checks them in. When you signed up there should have been a link that lets you share the invite with other people.

replying to 2024-10-25T18:42:14.064+00:00 by Cloudyahh [HTX] We thought about driving there and finding parking but with the time we'd be leaving I just don't want to deal with all the traffic.
that is so fair.

no. a coordinator originally had the line set up one way, then left for a bit. someone wearing the blue volunteer clothes showed up and was messing up the lines, trying to organize things the way she wanted, causing confusion. the original coordinator returned and shooed her off and is fixing the line

The energy I felt in the stadium was incredibly strong and empowering. I walked in alone but ended up leaving with several people I met in the lines who helped guide me through the rally process. People can say what they want about Kamala Harris, but one thing I saw today is that her supporters are truly committed and willing to stand together.

Right now the NBC model estimates 53% of early votes in Texas are from Republicans and 37% from Democrats. But there was an issue with the results earlier in the week that I’m not sure if they’ve fixed yet

No regrets at all. I’m going to lose my part time job, my graduate professor is mad I went out of town on a Friday and couldn’t send him the info he wanted, and it’s going to probably be a 16hr commute total and I was dog tired driving to my brother’s in Waco. I’m content. I watched history. It was amazing.

I’m thinking she came here knowing she would get amazing turnout (30,000+ wildly energetic folks) and get a MOMENTUM boost.

Also everyone at the rally was so nice. Literally chatted with perfect strangers while waiting in line and we sat together. One of the men I met was gay black Christian man in his 70s, who moved to Houston from Alabama. If he were included in a story, he’d be called a “DEI” character by the right.

The senate race was probably a big part of why she came. Tester hasn’t endorsed so she can’t hold a rally with him

Parties in Texas are weird though there are a lot of liberal leaning people that have to register as Republican for one reason or another.

If I recall correctly you “affiliate” with a party and it expires at the end of the year. Since we are only allowed to vote in one party’s primary and the Republicans win statewide and we have extremely gerrymandered maps, some independents and Democrats vote in the republican primaries. With that, the data errors if they haven’t been fixed, and more republicans voting for Democrats than “democrats” voting republican, the current margin should be a lot less than 17%
2024-10-26T15:15:00.872+00:00 by Bianca [TX] [ bianca_02758 ]
I think a lot of Republicans will go for Allred. People hate Cruz here 😂

I think NBC’s early vote data is most timely and informative. But you can also look at the Secretary of State cite for general numbers. As of this morning (through last night 25th without all counts) we are at 4.3 million votes/ 23% of the electorate and almost half of the votes in 2020. The numbers look great, especially age and gender. All we have to do is keep it going and inspire folks to bring one or two people with them. And so much is won at primaries, I echo the point that many are counted as Republicans who aren’t, just because they needed to vote locally. Last night (rally in Houston) was amazing and tells a big story. Let’s fight all the way!

Hi <@1115351769782956112> ! Alex recruited me to try to help, LOL. You're totally fine to be in the PA phone bank, we're calling PA right now! You can call voters on these lists from any state (so you aren't restricted to your own state!). Later tonight we'll likely switch to AZ and NV. 🙂 We're focusing on swing states that are likely to decide the election at the moment, and as much as we'd all love to see TX go blue, this is largely presidential calling so we're focusing on PA, NC, GA, MI, NE, AZ, and NV at the moment.

There's a script for him in there, you don't need to know anything to canvass for him! 🙂 My main argument on the senate stuff is basically that Kamala will need a blue senate to accomplish the items on her agenda, also that they support reproductive freedoms, annnnd in PA, the opponent is from CT and not PA, lol.

I want to point out that I read at least one article that says Cruz is ahead because early voters largely voted in the GOP primary. Hello -- I live in Tarrant County and I wanted to put in an early primary vote against Tony Tinderhold (not that it worked, of course).. in Texas, the GOP primary is really your chance to try and make a difference for final ballot and ultimately who wins -- SO DON'T BE DISCOURAGED. They are using a misleading metric!

I'm telling you guys. I watched Kamala Harris and she has been KILLING it the past week! She and Tim Walz are mopping the floor with Trump! It's like they say. If we fight, WE WIN! If we vote, WE WIN! Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are doing a AWESOME JOB! They are the way an American president and Vice President should be! Trump doesn't care about anything but staying out of jail!

Hi everyone in <@&1245910918206980157> ! Actually, the general consensus is that TX is a blue/purple state with horrifying amounts of voter suppression. One way to combat that is to pass the voting rights act, and in order to do that, we need to get Kamala in the White House and make sure that all of our vulnerable swing state senators hang on to their seats. (We are also all SO HOPEFUL that Allred can flip this seat and really admire everything you're doing to get him elected!) But we've got to hold the line with the White House first, and we need your help. Can you all please come give us a hand in <#1242256751445934262> (if you don't have this, go to

I would say something about bipartisanship or compromise since gridlock isn’t good. It means fighting and not being able to get anything done. Even though I don’t really like the idea of wanting a states senators to be from different parties it’ll work with some people

Sounds like someone may have taken them down! If no one else has said, I'd recommend reaching out to your local county party - even if they're out, someone may have personal signs to put up - I know I put my extra Colin Allred sign out at my local polling place!

Hello everyone! Last week I thought I saw a post saying that there were polling locations in Houston with no Harris/Walz signs posted. Yesterday I did a block walk with Harris County Heights Dems and let one of the coordinators, Jane, know that this was mentioned in our Discord. How can I get her contact information to people who can let her know where signs are needed? I've got about 10 signs in my car and while I'm driving around town doing errands this week I will put signs up at the early polling places myself if I don't see any Harris/Walz signs.

replying to 2024-10-28T15:58:02.861+00:00 by Just Sayori Oh really? Would I be able to volunteer at 17
Yes! Those -18yo can volunteer, I had a 10yo at one of my events earlier, even! You may also be able to get extra credit/service hours for school. Texans For Kamala is helping the national campaign with calls - there's a phonebank tonight, training included once you join the Zoom, or my contact will know of local opportunities you can help out with, too! We work really closely together, so if you want to dm I'll let him know to look out for opportunities for you. Here's the link for our phonebank TONIGHT at 6pm CT: https://events.democrats.org/event/690342/

replying to 2024-10-28T16:08:17.124+00:00 by Miranda J [TX] Hello everyone! Last week I thought I saw a post saying that there were polling locations in Houston with no Harris/Walz signs posted. Yesterday I did a block walk with Harris County Heights Dems and let one of the coordinators, Jane, know that this was mentioned in our Discord. How can I get her contact information to people who can let her know where signs are needed? I've got about 10 signs in my car and while I'm driving around town doing errands this week I will put signs up at the early polling places myself if I don't see any Harris/Walz signs.
Hmm I have info for state / county contacts, but it's so big that I'm not super familiar with the breakdowns. You might try finding the org you worked with here and reaching out to them or Harris Co Dems directly: https://www.harrisdemocrats.org/clubs

The contact is with the Harris County Dems so I know which organization they are with. They need to know the exact polling place locations that need signs so they can get volunteers to go out and post them. Of course, I am unable to find the post from last week that mentioned the exact polling place that needed signs. For now I'll do what I can and will put Harris/Walz signs up at polling places if I'm driving by one and notice they don't have any signs. Thanks!

Ok in that case I'd definitely recommend reaching out to Harris Dems! If you don't hear back, dm me and I can probably find a contact person for you! Thanks for keeping an eye out!

Some thanked me and shared appreciation. Otherwise truly we’re undecided and I asked how I can help them be more prepared before Election Day. What a rewarding experience today and I’m Looking forward to those positive moments each day. We can do this!

Hi <@552211934267834370> - there has been RECORD turnout in TX this year! I think either day may be packed, so be prepared for lines, but you can also check online to see if there's a website or article that shares the most/least crowded polling locations. Those tend to be organized by county, so it depends where you live. I'm sure it will be excellent vibes either way!!

<@1275276217724960810> Had a FANTASTIC Get Out The Vote/Watch Party last night in our Community Club House! I was surprised how many of my neighbors showed up! Varied from Former Republicans, Independents & even one Undecided who said she felt hopeless. But after gathering & hearing VP Harris speech she is on Our Team! We welcomed her with open arms!Today one of my neighbors went with her to Vote. I have tears right now of hope & optimism after last night & all that each of you are doing. .WHEN WE FIGHT WE WIN!!💙🇺🇲✊

I also go to a pretty conservative school. I would assume you would need permission from the college. If you work with a student org like MOVE or Texas Rising I don’t think you would need to get permission from the campaigns. I could be wrong though.

Went to make a donation at GoodWill and saw someone with a Harris Walz sticker on their car. When they got out they were wearing a red “MTGA: Make Trump Go Away” hat. He left before I could tell him how much I loved it. A+ sighting, we love to see it. 👏🏻

Bank the vote as early as you can. Whatever you decide, make a plan. You can pick your site based on wait times in some places: https://www.harrisvotes.com/Vote-Centers or central TX: https://www.kxan.com/news/central-texas-election-look-up-voting-wait-times/amp/ dallas: https://www.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/b4061814603441eaa2f7489043e796f4

Nice... I find the early voting location lists aren't accurate -- in other years I've headed to one I thought was correct and it was shut down. My husband spotted a little one in Arlington just driving by and none of us had a wait time, and they were wishing the busier ones would send some their way.

Women are leading in the early vote in Texas and if Texas Republican women are voting for Kamala at massive numbers, it may point to a great sign for the Democratic Party.
2024-10-31T20:42:21.777+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
HOw do you know they are GOP women? I voted in GOP primary but my general election was straight blue

<@1183965844372459551> Yes I do! At Our Community Watch Party on Tuesday I met three Women who were life long Republicans. One was a Reagan Republican & 2 others supported G W. Bush in the past. I didn't ask if they had voted for dump bf. bc they were at our gathering & were cheering along with us when VP Harris spoke! 💙🇺🇲✊

Well, I think it's misleading. I live in Tarrant County (very red) so to realistically have any say on local elections I have to vote in the GOP primary. Since Texas doesn't do party registration, the only way they would classify is by the primary voted in. I suspect I'm not alone in voting in the GOP primary (against Trump, for example, and my state rep whom I despise) -- if you really want a gauge, you'd have to know gender and probably education level. Education level seems to be the big divder on which way votes go, even across racial lines -- so you will hear more black men are voting for Trump, which may be true... but the real divide is college educated or not.
2024-10-31T21:03:32.888+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
How it will go, who knows. I'm sad Alred still lags Cruz in the polls so badly (4 pts). I'm discouraged that as hard as we worked last cycle we couldn't even keep Ken Paxton - multiple indicments clearly corrupt - out as AG. That one broke my heart.
2024-10-31T21:04:13.504+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
So yeah, I'm afraid to hope on any of it.
2024-10-31T21:04:31.651+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
I'll do what I can, leave it all on the field.... but optimistic? I can't find it in me.
2024-10-31T21:05:39.382+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
A lot of people I go to church with (well, women, anyway) -- methodist church -- none of them are voting red. But the Methodist church just had our own split and I know ones who went elsewhere/globalist -- they probably will vote Trump.
2024-10-31T21:21:59.191+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
On the plus side, I checked Texas voting log, and we do show up as having voted/it counted

If you’re doing that I would compare it to a 2020 exit poll for Texas. Demographics don’t vote the same everywhere. Rural white voters in Vermont vote very differently from rural white voters in Alabama
2024-10-31T21:27:28.795+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
Tarrant is pretty red for how urban/suburban it is but it did vote for Biden in 2020
2024-10-31T21:34:03.14+00:00 by Aden W (TX) [ aw823 ]
You can also get county turnout info on the Secretary of State’s website. Low turnout in El Paso County and higher turnout in Montgomery County than Dallas, Bexar, Travis, and Harris Counties is kinda worrying

The abortion issue jumped as top concern over immigration... but more people are anti-reproductive freedom on that same survey compared to the others.... it's like the rest of the country is moving one way, and it fired up all of our pro-life contingent and that may be getting them to the polls in greater numbers
2024-10-31T21:56:49.66+00:00 by Linda W (TX) [ ariel817 ]
