Meeting Description

Who

Revolution supporters who want to help us build strength for our movement by getting like-minded people running our local government

Why

With the exception of the time I voted for Ron Paul, voting for the Revolution candidates on the ballot was the best time I've ever had at the voting booth! You'll feel GREAT about yourself, and you'll make a difference in your community!

Organized by

Lisa Mallory

Details

Many of us who watched the polls (with dismay) during this election cycle would argue that the polls (vs. the people being polled) have influencing power to sway public opinion. In a society of sheep that like to follow the herd, WE need to become the people that the pollsters call to find out who they support. So -- how do we do that? We all know that the pollsters make calls to the "most likely voters" -- that is, people that vote regularly. So if we want the pollsters to start calling us and asking us who WE like -- we need to get ourselves on those "most likely voter" lists. We do this by voting in EVERY election.

Early Voting for the May 10th elections runs from April 28th to May 6th.

We've got some outstanding "Revolution" candidates on the ballot in this election and they deserve - and need - your support! Here are some links to the locations for early voting and the candidates I'm proud to support:

Early Voting Locations for Travis County
Austin City Council - Sam Osomene
Leander ISD Place #7- Bryan Martin
NW Austin MUD #1 - Don Zimmerman
WCID #17 - Jerri Lynn Ward

Early Voting Locations for Williamson County
Anderson Mill MUD Place #2- Pam Farley
Anderson Mill MUD Place #3 - Elizabeth Elleson

Let the Revolution Begin!

    "Voting in local elections is more important than ever now that we have more freedom-minded Ron Paul-type candidates like Don Zimmerman and Sam Osomene. If you missed early voting, be sure to catch voting day, May 10th!"
