        We need a lot more of us to take an active interest in educating ourselves to be informed voters, and then we need to vote in every single election. It sounds simple, but is a lot more complicated when you have an underfunded school system and active propaganda machines that have been screwing up the minds of Texans for the last several decades.

          Not to mention, the state government seems to be going out of their way to try to make sure only the “right” people vote

          It does sound simple right? I’ve been an avid voter and I’m in a bubble here in district 35 so it feels like everyone I know avidly votes progressive as well but obviously that’s why the bubble was built.
