Williamson county, you’re breaking my heart. Voting is a free way to show care for your community. Take advantage of LWV resources (vote411.org) and GO VOTE ON TUESDAY. #vote411 #vote #wilcotx #lwvwilco

After 3 days of early voting, my county has had 1.6% turnout of registered voters. Dismal. Please go #vote. We have a ton of resources at Lwvwilco.org.

Two smiling people with light skin, both wearing dark sunglasses. It’s a very sunny day. They are standing in front of a public library graced with a large hippo statue. They are both wearing stickers that say I voted early.

Spouse and I voted this morning. Get out there, Texas! #vote #voteearly #vote411

2 perpetually silly women standing in front of a REGISTER TO VOTE HERE sign. One woman wears a sun hat with lots of voting related buttons. She has light skin and sunglasses and is smiling. The other woman is wearing a VOTE baseball cap and sunglasses. She is sticking her tongue out like she belongs in a metal band. It’s clear they have been friends for years.

My job at #NoKings in Austin yesterday was registering voters and engaging people to volunteer with LWV. Estimated crowd of 30K. We had several orgs registering voters. Our table registered 130. Shout out to the organizers! This was a peaceful event, very well run.
