We met our goal three days before deadline and Glen Maxey is in Isla Mujeres celebrating.  For the first time ever, Texas Democrats are sending ballot by mail applications to every known Democrat over the age of 65.  Thanks to you, we were able to cover the entire state.  For the first time ever.

Ballots by mail are good for one full year, so we’ve got a handle on this.

The applications are pre-populated and marked for a Democratic primary ballot so Republicans won’t use them in case they get their grubby hands on them.  They are also coded, so we will know who sent their’s back and who hasn’t yet.

I am leaving the donate button up in case somebody gets extra special nice with a cherry on top and wants to donate to help Hazel Lundy’s phone banking team start calling in late January to remind people to fill out the application and mail it back.  Hazel hires Democrats who need some extra work and trains them to be phone bankers. She pays them $10 an hour plus a hot meal to make calls from her home.

I will also be creating online phone banking for people outside of Texas who want to help make calls.

The last of the Thank You postcards go out tonight.  See, I got it done by Christmas this time!  There were 165 of them and I did them a dozen at a time, so if I missed you, let me know.

This right here is Bubba and Glen at the courthouse in Johnson City all decorated up for Christmas last weekend.  The courthouse is decorated, not Don and Glen.  We’ve tried as hard as we can, but they don’t look any better with decorations.

And this is the last I heard from Glen —

I’m sure there’s a story but I don’t wanna know.  Seriously, Glen, shuddup.

Thank you again, Guys.
