3. Get EVERYONE to the polls!
4. Attend your local Precinct Convention.

1. REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!
"Legend holds that with the possibility of additional help fading, Colonel Travis drew a line on the ground and asked any man willing to stay and fight to step over — all except one did. As the defenders saw it, the Alamo was the key to the defense of Texas, and they were ready to give their lives rather than surrender their position to General Santa Anna. Among the Alamo's garrison were Jim Bowie, renowned knife fighter, and David Crockett, famed frontiersman and former congressman from Tennessee...
While the facts surrounding the siege of the Alamo continue to be debated, there is no doubt about what the battle has come to symbolize. People worldwide continue to remember the Alamo as a heroic struggle against impossible odds — a place where men made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom. For this reason, the Alamo remains hallowed ground and the Shrine of Texas Liberty."
2. If you didn't vote in early voting, VOTE ON TUESDAY!!!

3. Get EVERYONE to the polls!
Everyone means EVERYONE. Friends, family, co-workers, acquaintances, people you pass on the street, etc. Big turnout numbers will tell the political establishment, in no uncertain terms, that the people have awakened. If you don't have any friends, or you'd like to make some new ones, you can phone bank from here:

Whatever you have to do, get the voters to the polls!!!
4. Attend your local Precinct Convention.
Your local Precinct Convention will take place at 7:00 pm at your polling place. If you want to have a say in the inner workings of either the Democrat or Republican party, attending your Precinct Convention is a very good place to start. You can bring your own proposed resolutions to be voted on. Resolutions which pass at the Precinct Convention will proceed to your Senate District Convention. Our friends at the Houston Tea Party Society recently posted a list of proposed resolutions here:
The Democrat site Burnt Orange Report has posted some proposed resolutions here:
