If you live in Texas, make sure to register to vote! The deadline is coming up in a few days on the 7th. Note that for Texas you must register either in person or by mail, you cannot register online unlike most states
Find information on how to register to vote anywhere https://vote.gov/
I encourage people not only to check your registratio, but full on order a new ID, confirming it j’s your correct name, address, and a updated picture it poseible.
Understand, Texas has realistically been blue since at least 2000. Voter turnout is an existential threat to the Texas republicans, and they know it.
hopefully theyre all antiorange
Ken Paxton will personally close all polling stations if more than 20 people show up to vote
he would have his ass kicked if he tried it here
Gonna repeat what I said in a different comment:
Encourage people to try to vote early everywhere. Texas has early in person voting from Oct 21 – Nov 1
If you vote early, you’ll have time to come back again in case there’s some last minute changes to the polling places open or some other problem. Plus you also don’t then have to worry about something like being sick on election day
My body is ready
Ummmm.
In 2020, 11 million people voted.
Texas is going blue. Vote!
Another million might’ve made us blue already. Trump had the smallest GOP margin of victory in Texas in decades! Texas picked Carter, LBJ, and JFK for President! If Harris wins Texas then there’s basically no way Trump can sue his way to victory.
how many were registered though?
16.1mil
2 million swifties have arrived with more on the way.
Those Kaminoans work quickly.
she endorsed Biden in 2020 as well.
so at the same ratio you’re looking at about 12.4m voters so far.
A ~1.2 million increase in turnout could be significant enough to change the president and or senate race
Keep in mind trump only won texas by ~600 thousand votes in 2020
And Cruz won by only ~200 thousand votes in 2018
And Cruz literally abandoned them to freeze.
Shit even AOC didn’t do that, and she is in New York. lmao
The difference is that AOC is a human being and not a blobfish who watched someone make fun of his wife
Has piss baby Ken Paxton cut voting to only one polling locale yet?

you can vote at any polling place within your county if you vote early
Early Voting Locations
Voting during the early voting period couldn’t be easier and more convenient! Registered and eligible voters may vote at ANY early voting location located in their county of residence. Whether you are at home, work or out running errands, you will be able to find a polling place near you. 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.
Note: Polling place hours vary at each early voting location.
Good information. Thank you!
Blue Texas!!!
Drunk blue Texas!
Love the energy, we can turn that kind of energy into a blue texas
AG Paxton’s new rule would be that the entranceway of every polling location in Texas can only be open once every 10 minutes for 30 seconds at a time, to prevent voter fraud of course.
That much voter fraud huh?
Pics or it didn’t happen
Yeah. That’s how population growth is…
It’ll be newsworthy when total votes/voters go down over time, this is like being surprised 12:30 pm happens after noon everyday.
The voter registration numbers are exceeding the population changes in Texas
This is great to see. Texas isn’t so much a red state as a non voting state. The more people vote, the better democrats do generally. It’s why Republicans are always pushing for voter roll purges.
Republicans lose the popular vote, period. When people actually vote, on every level, Republicans lose.
Point being percent is the metric to use here. Not total number
Yes, using either metric, you’re wrong.
Also younger voters, especially young women are much more invested in politics and more likely to vote than ever.
Eh…
In the 1960s it was like 50%, I don’t think we’re there yet
And people talk about how today’s violence, extremism, and division is new like the Civil Rights movement never happened and Malcolm just had that AK for a photo OP.
You’re “than ever” isnt accurate.
