Making Our Presence Known at the State Capital
Collectively coming together at the Texas State Capital with members from around Texas to make our presence known and that we are concerned with the issues affecting our communities.
Voter
Registration
Voters must be registered to be eligible to participate in an election. Voter registration is intended to ensure that everyone entitled to vote can do so, to prevent ineligible persons from voting, and to guard against multiple voting by the same individual. The accuracy of the voter register is a key element in ensuring that all qualified citizens can enjoy the right to vote. It doesn't matter your party affiliation.
Voter
Education
Voter education provides potential voters with the necessary information to make an informed choice in the voting booth. Voter education should also include information on when, where, and how to register to vote and when, where, and how to vote.
Why does voter education matter?
Elections cannot be genuinely democratic unless voters understand the differences among the contestants so that they can cast an informed vote. Voters must also understand how to vote on election day, or risk missing the opportunity, having their ballot disqualified for being improperly marked, or facing another issue that restricts or eliminates their ability to participate.
Voter
Mobilization
Voter mobilization is about empowering citizens to participate in the democratic process. Vote mobilizations can be achieved through various means, such as education, outreach, and peer-to-peer contact.
High voter turnout is crucial to the integrity of the democratic process. A more diverse and representative electorate leads to more balanced and equitable policy decisions. Representative democracies, huge ones like the United States, rely on voter mobilization efforts to ensure our elected officials represent the varying needs and opinions of the American public.
