Doing My Part For The Left

October 6th is the last day to register voters for the 2008 elections.  It is time for everyone to get involved and make a difference.  Anyone in Texas can be sworn in as a deputy voter registrar and register voters.  All you have to do is go to your county Tax Assessor office and be sworn in.  Voter registration is at an all time high across the nation but we can do better with your help.

Follow me below the fold to find out all the ways you can help register voters and help make this the most historic election in Texas history.

Once you have been deputized, you can then take voter registration cards with you to any location and register voters.  It would be fantastic if concerned citizens were in front of every restaurant, bar, music venue and gathering place all weekend registering voters.  You can then explain early voting, inform people who are off parole and probation that they have their citizenship rights back and can vote and make a difference in Texas.

Check with your county party to see if they are doing a voter registration drive this last weekend and volunteer for a shift.  Block walk your neighbor hood and ask people if they are registered to vote where they currently live.  Go to your favorite hangout or coffee shop and register people.  In Travis County, we are doing a Voter Registration Marathon on October 6th from 8 am till midnight.  We will be at over 50 locations around the county and still need people to volunteer for shifts.  The shifts are 8-12, 12-4, 4-8, and 8 till midnight.  Anyone in Travis county can be sworn in as a voter registrar at the Travis County Coordinated Campaign Office at 1107 North IH-35.  You can pick up cards to register people from now until Monday and then volunteer for a shift for Monday.
