Texas
Related: About this forumI'm listening to a "conference call" hosted by Battleground Texas with President Obama,
Wendy Davis, Leticia VanDepute and a host of other Texas Democrats. Obama just pointed out that Texas has more Democrats than Republicans and if we would just go to the polls it would be a landslide for all our candidates.
Giving hotline and website for free rides to the polls. This the most aggressive GOTV effort ever!
Win, lose or draw Battleground Texas isn't going away. We WILL turn blue in the next two election cycles.

Win, lose or draw, I will wait until tomorrow night to know the winner, and I think it is highly improper for the media to be making predictions at this point.

(3,995 posts)(Can't believe I'm old enough to say that.) Anyway, this is the first year a democratic GOTVer has knocked on my door. I told her to get off my lawn and go to someone else's house. No need wasting time with me -- the dems have my vote!

(15,224 posts)Told them to take my name off the list because I was (and did!) going to be at the early voting site the very first day to cast my vote for her and all the other Democrats.
I'm a lifelong Texan and I want my beloved Texas to return to blue like it's supposed to be!
