Stephen Wright, Nacogdoches Democratic Chair:
Fellow Nacogdoches Democrats,
We are in the homestretch! Election day is six days away. Thanks to everyone for your committed work and support in this election. Still, we can’t stop working now. We need maximum effort through Tuesday to get out the vote. You, your Democratic family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and all Dems, need to make their voice heard! If we all get out to the polls, we win the Governor’s race for Bill White, sweep our other statewide races, make sure Kenneth Franks is our next State Representative, solidify Reggie Cotton as our Precinct 2 County Commissioner, and win the Precinct 4 County Commissioner seat for Lane Bradshaw. We can do it, but only if we keep pushing the vote out. So, check out our upcoming activism below, personally find five Democratic folks to get out the polls, and let’s turn Texas and Nacogdoches County deep Democratic blue!
1) Early voting hours continue through Friday, October 29th at the Nacogdoches County Courthouse from 7AM-7PM.
2) We will be taking part in the SFA homecoming parade and need volunteers to ride or walk the route with signs. Meet us at 8:00AM at Headquarters (901 E. Main) on Saturday, October 30th. We will have doughnuts!
3) WE NEED CANDY! Our County Party will have a much-needed booth at the Scare-on-the-Square festivities on the night of Saturday, October 30th, but we still need candy donations. Drop a bag or two by Headquarters (901 E. Main).
4) Sign-distribution to the polling locations will tale place on Monday, November 1st beginning at 6:00 PM at Headquarters (901 E. Main). We have several locations in which to get signs out to, so come help us out. We will have free pizza!
5) Election Day is November 2nd! Precinct locations are listed below and the polls are open from 7AM-7PM (for folks who normally vote at Austin Height Baptist Church, note the change in location to Calvary Baptist Church). We will have Dems at Headquarters that day, so if you have any voting problems, questions, or need a ride to the polls, call us at 462-1210. Also, join us at 7:00 that evening at Headquarters (901 E. Main) as we celebrate incoming election results. We will have free pizza!
6) If you haven’t heard Nacogdoches resident Christian Cutler’s story and the subsequent shameful response from Representative Louie Gohmert’s office, check out this link: http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/politics/2010/10/26/ac.terror.babies.fallout.cnn.html. This now national news, as it should be.
7) On a final note, Precinct Chairman and former County Chairman Hall Nichols is undergoing cancer treatment at the Willowbrook Center on 227 Russell Boulevard in Nacogdoches. I visited him yesterday, and although weak, he is fired up about the election and even engaged some of the Willowbrook staff during my short visit, encouraging them to vote Democratic! Hall wanted me to tell everyone of you to keep up the good fight and said he fully expected to see Bill White elected Governor. He would also love to have visitors from his Democratic friends, so drop by and see him in ROOM 602!
That’s it until this weekend when we’ll get out a reminder email. We still need everyone’s help, so drop by the office to volunteer, make a donation, or grab a yard sign. Nacogdoches County is destined to return to its Democratic roots and this election is part of that process. Get out and vote, vote, vote!
Your Chairman,
Stephen Wright
