Fort Bend County Democrats hired Sarah Slaman a while back

I am been meaning to post about what my county party is doing. Fort Bend County is the home of Tom DeLay but the Texas State Democratic Party and my county party are working hard to turn this county blue. One of the great decisions made by the party chair was to hire Sarah Slamen. Sarah was a hero/great speaker at the hearings on the Texas abortion law last summer. Here is a video of her testimony



Here is a youtube video of Lawrence O'Donnell interviewing Sarah




I have enjoyed watching Sarah in action and I am very happy that the Fort Bend County party has hired Sarah. My county has been sending block walkers out in a very systematic fashion to contact the 40,000 or so Democrats who voted in 2008 and 2012 but not 2010. If we can motivate a significant number of these voters, my county will turn blue.

Poor Bubba is working his rear end off getting ready for the primary. He took over at the end of September and had to recruit candidates by the December 9 deadline. Bubba has done an amazing job in our county.

Greg only cares about fraud if he can keep non whites from voting
