JOIN US FOR A SUMMER OF ACTION!We all worked hard in the first half of the year to prepare voters for the primary, and now that the ballot is set it's time to get ready for midterm elections in November.
Enter our Summer of Action. We have a variety of volunteer activities throughout the summer to make sure we're ready for the fall—when it's time to really put the pedal to the metal. Read on for all the details and be on the lookout for even MORE activities as summer gets going. |
Voting Influencer TrainingMost voters need a nudge to vote. And in Texas, many voters-- especially new voters--have questions.
In this training, we'll teach you what you need to know to be a voting influencer. We'll help you become the go-to person your neighbors, coworkers, friends, and family members can turn to for useful information about voting and elections. Tuesday evenings from 5-7 Doc's Backyard in Sunset Valley |
POSTCARD PARTIESWe're keeping up postcard parties all summer long! Currently, Postcard Parties are held Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings (starting July 2). Choose your best time and register at one of the links below.
