www.votetexas.gov has everything you need for the election. You can register to vote, check your voter registration, check your polling locations and hours, and see the important dates. Voter registration must be received by Oct 7.
Polls open Oct 21-Nov 1, with a final day to vote on Nov 5. Polls will be open at least 9 hours the first week and at least 12 hours the second week and final voting day. Go in the first 2 weeks and there won’t be a long line! I’ve never waited more than 10 minutes when voting the first two weeks.
My heart is black and shriveled. It no longer has the capacity for hope, but I want to live in a world where Allred defeats that shit stain so bad.
“I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.” - Al Franken
“When most people think of a cruise that’s full of shit, they think of Carnival. But we think of Ted.” - Also Al Franken
“If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody could convict you.” - Lindsey Graham
Graham has very likely reneged on that sentiment.
im sure texas will find some new, novel way to prevent democracy.
Ken Paxton will sweep in at the last second, invalidate the exact number of ballots that Cruz loses by or will just remove entire polling stations, and nobody will do anything about it
We can fight back against some of their voter suppression tactics
If you know people in texas, make sure they are checking their voter registration and re-register if purged
I use this neat trick to avoid getting purged. I register Republican.
Then I vote straight Democrat. When I can tell who the Democrat is. It’s not always easy in this dang state and all the stupid positions that are SUPPOSED to be non-partisan.
Fucking whacko fundies ruin everything.
“How could there be so many votes for the evil Demonrats when we have so many registered Republicans? That must mean they’re cheating so we’re gonna toss all the ‘irregular’ Demonrat votes!”
-Some “patriotic” governor.
Damn…that’s…actually pretty smart. Even if they catch on that people are doing this, what are they going to do? Purge republican registered voters?
Vote.gov 5 days left to register in Texas. You have to watch the fine print too on how to register. Follow the instructions closely.
It’s not just about voter suppression anymore. It’s also about using bullshit fraud accusations and lawfare tactics to stop the votes from being counted after they’re cast.
Frankly, I’m getting sick and tired of hearing the same tired refrain from people who don’t understand just how dire the the fight against the fascists’ tactics really is. WE NEED MORE THAN JUST MOTHERFUCKING ‘VOTER REGISTRATION’ TO STOP THIS! The tactics we need to be talking about are things like organizing counter-protests and removing traitorous MAGA election officials before they have a chance to conduct their sabotage.

“he hit on a novel idea to solve his financial problems”
I’ve heard this story before. It’s starting to feel like it’s the football that Lucy is holding while I run at to kick the game winning field goal.
I guess Charles Schultz just grew up in a different time, but I always wondered why Charlie Brown never snapped, and just beat the shit out of her. Not the first time she did that. That would be psycho behavior to just start beating the shit out of one of your friends for doing that ONCE…but Wendy has made a whole life reputation out of being the one who does this…EVERY…SINGLE…TIME.
So after like 10 times, I’m surprised Charlie Brown never went “Ok, you know what, come here, removed…” and then the next day’s comic strip Wendy would have a black eye. Then, 30 years later, these youtube shows could do these low budget list videos
“Ten times sunday morning cartoons got really really dark!”
And at like number 3 would be the time Peanuts suggested that Charlie Brown punched Wendy.
And maybe like number 7 could be the time Dilbert got really biggoted towards his new trans co-worker.
And number 1 would be Jon from the Garfield comics going completely fucking insane, feeding his 12lb cat a 6lb dish of lasagna every week, talking to, and understanding his cat (but for some reason NOT his dog), and his batshit insane dating life stratagies such as hiding in womens bushes, and surprising them at work unannounced during work hours. Yes, these are all legit things I absolutely remember reading in real garfield cartoons in the 90s.

I wouldn’t put it past Republicans to accidentally vote for him because of his name
I really hope so! We have the people; we just need the votes!!
We can do more than just hope, we can help make it happen! Vote, get active, volunteer for texas democrats
Please make that puffy sad sack go away.
I’m surprised that Turd Cruz has had the time to detach himself from Trump’s asshole to consider the fact that he might lose.
I’ve already admitted several times that I don’t understand the world anymore. I USED to understand the world. I don’t understand the world now. First Georgia became a swing state? Now TEXAS???
I…I mean, I’ll take it, but…what?
Hillary only needed 5% more of the registered voters to win in 2016. Biden needed less than 4%. We just need people to turn out.
In 2020, Biden received more votes in TX than NY and Trump received more votes in CA than TX.
Taxes has more registered Democrats than Republicans, but they don’t vote in the same numbers. Largely due to voter suppression policies (like 1 ballot drop box per county).
Does texas not have early mail-in voting?
Only for certain people. However we were the first state to have early in-person voting!
Please, let us Canadians take back Ted Cruz! Once he’s out you can drop him by the ranch near Grande Prairie, Alberta.
