3. This stunt has really energized the women groups

There have been a number of e-mails to get people to go to the people's filibuster and to support this cause. I think that the women vote will be out in force in the next election. I know that people are trying to get Wendy Davis, a State Senator from Fort Worth, to run for governor. She would be a great candidate. Senator Davis is scheduled to lead the filibuster tomorrow on the anti-abortion bill.

If the SCOTUS strikes down Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, the State of Texas will become subject to a voter id/voter suppression bill designed to steal the vote of the poor, minorities and the old. The Texas Democratic Party is planning to use the GOP voter suppression tactics as a way to motivated minority voters. If Hispanic voters in Texas started to vote in the same percentages as California, then Texas would be a blue state.

There is some good polling that shows that Hispanic voters may get angry at GOP voter suppression efforts and the TDP is planning on making sure that Hispanic voters understand why they are being targeted by the GOP
