37. I am a Democratic Precinct Chair in Fort Worth Texas

Mon Feb 3, 2020, 01:08 PM

Feb 2020

and I keep finding more Democrats. My current project is contacting the 115 Democrats or Democratic leaning voters who were sent Vote By Mail Applications ( the cost of doing this was borne by the Texas Democratic Party, funds raised by grass roots). I have had 3 call me back, and found 2 more that I did not know about previously! I may have recruited a couple to do some volunteer work after the primary.

When I load my list today, I may discover the number has decreased due to applications received by our County ELections office.

Refusing to learn about political reality, then voting anyway, is immoral. lagomorph777 Feb 2020 #46

Yes, but there's a huge amount of hectoring that tells people it's their patriotic duty to vote, tblue37 Feb 2020 #47

Yeah, that is tragically dangerous. lagomorph777 Feb 2020 #48
