I actually had an opportunity to have some civil discourse this morning with my grocery cashier. When I reminded her to vote, I found out she's not registered, so I gave her information about what she would need to register and also told her that if she wants change, the way to get it is to vote. I'm not sure about same day registration in Texas, but she said she would look it up when she got off work. It felt good to have that conversation. Then on my way home, I took the time to read the trump flag at a stop sign, and it said "Take America Back". Back from democrats or back to the dark ages|? Not sure which one they mean or if it means both?

Texans must register a full thirty days before Election Day to be eligible to vote – the earliest allowed by the National Voter Registration Act.

Because, f'n Texas.

My husband looked it up this morning. Texas is not voter friendly. I did warn my cashier of that.

Its these things that must be changed! And gerrymandering and the electoral college has to be eliminated!

I would love to see both gerrymandering and the electoral college eliminated. I also think if we could turn Texas blue, we could be more voter friendly.
