Just two weeks ago, we showed the Netroots Nation why Texas is important and how we are working tirelessly to Turn Texas Blue. Over 3000 people attended and saw first hand the passion surrounding Texas. Over 10,000 people kept a watchful eye on Austin as we heard from Wes Clark, Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, Al Gore, and others, that Texas is not a lost cause. Texas is ready to be a Democratic state again.
Now we need our friends from Washington state to Washington D.C. help Take Back Texas. We are 5 seats away from taking back the Texas House. We are 5 seats away from taking back the Texas Senate. There are 5 seats on the Legislative Redistricting Board in Texas, and we need some Democrats on that committee. Regardless of your zip code or precinct, you can be a part of something special. You can Turn Texas Blue.
With less than a 100 days until the November 4 election, we are asking people across the state and country to help show the world that Texas is purple, that Texas truly is in play. Barack Obama is sending a dozen organizers to mobilize hundreds of thousands of volunteers to prove the point while John McCain isn’t sending a soul.
We are asking every Democrat, Independent, and disillusioned and fed-up Republican to be a part of the 100 Day Challenge. It’s time for everyone to take some small actions that will add up to big results on November 4.
We are challenging you to help Turn Texas Blue in the next 100 days. How? Sign up at www.TurnTexasBlue.com/100 and then do any of the four actions:
- Call 100 potential volunteers (We have an online phonebank system that you can use)
- Enter 100 names in our database at our campaign headquarters in Austin
- Donate $100
- Throw a house party that raises at least $100
A name a day. A number a night. A dollar a day. Or one party with your friends. This is the easiest challenge yet.
Just in Austin, close to two hundred thousand people waited in line to cast our primary votes. Over 50,000 people attended precinct conventions. Imagine what we could do if we all take part in the 100 Day Challenge. Make your voice heard and empower your friends, family, neighbors, coworkers, and other Democrats.
Will you help Turn Texas Blue in the next 100 days?
Regardless of whether you are in Austin, Texas, or any other city or state, you can help Turn Texas Blue. The best way to be a part of the 100 Day Challenge is to host or attend a House Party.
Hosting a House Party is one of the easiest ways to mobilize and energize people. When you host a house party, you support Democratic candidates, bring your friends and neighbors together to meet each other and get involved with issues that matter most to you. A House Party prepares our community to communicate about the candidates and it fuels our desire to spread the word about the issues, volunteer for the Democrats, and stay involved.
A House Party finds volunteers, helps elect Democrats, and raises money for the Travis County Democratic Party Coordinated Campaign. Hosting a House Party is the most effective way to take part of the 100 Day Challenge and Turn Texas Blue.
Sign up today to host or help your neighbors host a house party.
If you have never held a house party before, then we have a fantastic House Party Coordinator ready to help you, regardless of where you live. Just sign up and they will get back with you!
Time is almost up. The Election is almost here. We have 100 days to Turn Texas Blue and house parties are a great way to mobilize our most important voters–YOU.
Sign up to host a house party today and take part in the 100 Day Challenge!
