Good post..

Thanks for all your work.

Purple thumbs.

EXCELLENT!

Republicans should make elimination of gerrymandering and vote fraud top priorities for the next two years. This has gone way too far.

How would the pubbies eliminate gerrymandering in dim states?

Texas was gerrymandered under the dims. Now, we are being just as fair with them as they were with us.

Fraud is a more tractable problem. As I outlined, a lot of our work is just investigating the voter rolls and scrubbing them.

Texas was gerrymandered under the dims.

God truly has a sense of humor.

The Dem's spent all the time getting people to sign up for the census, increasing the number of representatives for a bunch of states.

Along comes the 2010 election with a landslide for the Republicans, enabling us to define the new districts.

In republican controlled states, it’s easy. In dem states the only thing to do is yell and scream, delay the process as long as possible, and make sure the people know what is going on. People seem a little more engaged these days.

Thanks for taking the time to inform everyone about your experience; and although I don't live in Texas, thanks for the responsible diligence you put into your work at the polls. Most of us have not done equal volunteer efforts in our own precincts, so kudos to you.

Serving as a Judge or Poll Watcher is not that hard.

I took two classes (6 hrs. total).

Election Day is a bit long, and I really hate getting up at 4 AM.

But the payoff is great!
