I've fought...
fiercely against many of those laws when they were coming through the legislature.
And Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the country as a result.
It's why we see such low voter turnout in our state compared to other states.
We're going to have to overcome that.
We're going to have to out-organize, out-work, out-hustle that voter suppression if we're going to win.
And I'm worried about suppression on top of those systems, shenanigans being played, intimidation at polling places.
And it's why we have assembled a team of lawyers, including some volunteer lawyers, who are keeping a close eye on all of our elections and if there's funny business happening.
being able to respond quickly to preserve people's sacred God-given rights at the ballot box.
But it's something we have to be on guard against.
It means we're probably going to have to win by a little more than we would normally have to in a completely free and fair election.
But I also don't want people to...
to become defeatists about this.
If you look back throughout American history, civil rights marchers, labor organizers, farm workers, they all were up against a rigged system.
They all faced long odds, and they outworked, they out hustled, they outsmarted the powers that be, and they were able to make progress and win.
And so if they can do that, we can certainly do that against this stack deck.
Yeah, I mean, making sure, checking on your registration, if you are registered, making sure it's up to date.
And if you're not registered, making sure you do that now, because some states like Texas have deadlines where you have to register like a month in advance, which again, is all part of the effort to make it harder to vote in our state.
So check your registration and then check your requirements.
What do you have to bring to the polls?
