You can only personally deliver your mail-in ballot on Election Day. Did that in 2024. Also, it took 5 days for our ballot to get from the election office to our home and 4 days to get back to the election’s office.

As a Texas Dem who worked with the Galveston County Dem Party for 10 years, I love your data for perspective. I did a lot of data crunching back then. The number of registered voters has risen for this election but how does that compare to our voter eligible population - over time?

"In 2022, Abbott beat Beto by 880,000 votes, ... . So, if 20% of them had stayed home that year, Beto would have won. Now, combine that with Democrats being over-energized and ready to kick Republicans to the curb, and it’s just not setting up to be a good next few weeks for the GOP."

"In Texas, what does history tell us about midterm turnout (at the top of the ticket)? 2022: 45% voter turnout = Republicans win by 10 points 2018: 53% voter turnout = Republicans win by 2 points 2014: 33.14% voter turnout = Republicans win by 27 points"

Texas is NOT a RED state. It's a NONE-voting state: 44% of voters who are registered, didn't vote in 2022. They let the GQP win again and again. As we've hoped in the past, maybe this year more registered voters will vote BLUE in a big way? www.lonestarleft.com/p/numbers-nu...
"TeLxas Democrats are slightly more enthusiastic about voting this year, while Texas Republicans are substantially less enthusiastic."

Lack of registered vot er participation in Texas elections keeps the GQP in power.

That "something different and better" needs to include a replacement for the authoritarian economic system that created the morbidly wealthy. We need a democratic economic system that gives employees control of the profit their productivity creates. They will prevent wealth concentration/abuse.

Ultra-wealthy donors are spending a staggering $430 million to fight state efforts to raise their taxes. If they can afford to drop millions of dollars to keep their taxes low, they can afford to pay slightly higher taxes. They’re making the case for taxing the rich better than anyone else could.

53 years ago, yesterday, in 1973, I returned to San Diego aboard the USS Constellation, CVA-64, to reunite with my family whom I hadn't seen since late Spring of 1972 - a total separation of 17 months.

Whether it's a leader of ISIS cutting off someone's head in a public arena or US leaders ordering others to perform the execution and streaming it LIVE on-line, it's a very low moral bar that deeply scars and shames a nation and its citizens!
