Disappointed! I call all those that hate the map vote against all the Republicans up and down their ballot. Even the good Republicans, need to take a stand and show this County Commissioner that you don’t support racism and vote Democratic Party tickets. Show them, they are wrong.

I met Shannon Perez right around when she sued Texas. She is one of our Precinct Chairs now.

In another vote. Did you forward my email to the person that wants to be a precinct chair? I have recently got like 4 applications. Our next committee meeting will be June 30! That is when those will be process.

Thank you so much for this information. 💙

Oh, I saw it, but had a busy day. I will make sure to do that first thing in the AM.

Is there such a thing as a “good” republican?

Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt and all the pragmatic and Texas Republicans we will gather to our side as we fight the power and the ugliness Texas Republicans are fixing to unleash. Since this is Texas, we cannot close our minds or our hearts to our fellow Texans just because they voted Republican. The math just won't work anyway.

This isn’t redistricting. It’s spiritual warfare dressed in khakis and courtrooms. What they did to Commissioner Simmons is the modern-day equivalent of a firebomb with a smiling face and a spreadsheet. Same script, different props.

When power can’t win fairly, it cheats. When white supremacy feels threatened, it recalibrates—new maps instead of nooses, but the motive hasn’t changed. And anyone who dares say this isn’t about race should be made to recite the Greenwood Food Blockade story until they understand what hunger tastes like when it's weaponized.

They’re not just trying to erase a district. They’re trying to erase a movement. But guess what? You can’t redline the human spirit. And you sure as hell can’t silence a people who’ve had to shout just to be heard since the day this country drew its first map.

We see you, Tarrant. And we’re coming with holy rage and voter rolls.

a little bit of biz about TarCoun...near and dear to me

i suggested to the EC and the Chair that she put off her resignation so we could find suitable candidates....she didn't respect that notion. I would characterize it as Crystal...1st, 2nd and 3rd. She hasn't resigned yet,,but its imminent,,,,so it won't be a full elections but will go to an insider It will be hard to put a slate together that represents the 40% Hispanic voters . Thanks Crystal...how swell of you.

for those who don't know how it works, in event of a resignation, the party EC's and PC's select someone......from an application...no candidate forums, no interviews.

TC's Commisioner's Court just ruled today that 1/3 of the citizens of TC don't have equal rights.

The insiders, and their amateur endeavors has deprived Texas of a blue TC, blue Gov and blue Pres.

we are all set to do it again.
