Texas Voter Registration Currently Ends Oct. 6th
When one of my daughters lived in Leander, Texas, for several years, she and her husband often had some trouble voting. Even though they registered and lived in the same place, they found that their names were not on the voter list. This happened several times. After the first experience, and the day of the second, she called the registrars office to confirm that they were indeed on the list. However, when they showed up to vote, they had to argue with the poll that they were still registered.
I add this small bit of family experience to the ether. I ask you to consider Lynnette Long’s growing compendium of election fraud in Texas, in line with the following: I just went on line to the Montgomery Co. website in Texas and it appears their server is down. This is probably due to the power outage. However, I think we must anticipate the possibility that the general election vote will be affected by Ike.
It appears that voter registration for the General Election currently ends in Texas on October 6th!! This will not be a lot of time to begin to recover from all the damage Ike is currently inflicting. Re-registering, or assuring you are still registered, may not be at the top of your priority list right now. However, I urge you as soon as you are able, to call your registrars office or go online and ascertain your status, and print a pdf copy if you need to. The State of Texas should make accommodation for this event.

Gary Scharrer reports on some very encouraging news on the Texas Politics blog. Texas voter registration is near record levels.
At least for the southern part of the state, voter registration, and registration mail-outs may be in flux. Today Time.com issued this article:
The Land of Lincolner gets an update on the storm from Mayor Bill White Friday evening, he says they’re prepared for Ike.
Obama says he’ll do whatever he can to help, including fundraise on his website for relief efforts.
The eye of the storm powered ashore Galveston, Texas at 3:10 am ET with 110 mph winds, just shy of a Category 3 storm.

While this gesture from Obama shows leadership, there can be no doubt that there must be an underlying truth. Confusion and desperate times are always an opportunity for someone. Both Parties may take advantage of this bad circumstance. Let’s not let that happen.
