ELECTION DAY IS HERE!!!! VOTE AND CAUCUS!
If you voted --early or today March 4-- you can and should go to the voting place in your voting precinct (precinct number is on your registration card) at 7:15 p.m. THIS EVENING. This is the second part of presidential primary voting in Texas. You cannot participate in a caucus if you did not vote. You must participate in the caucus of the party in which you voted in the Primary.
If you show up for the precinct caucus and there is no one there for the meeting, ask the election judge or worker for the Democratic Party Precinct Convention packet. The election judge or worker is required to have this packet, which is a large envelope containing forms outlining EXACTLY how to conduct the precinct caucus. Included in the packet will be the sign-in sheet for individuals to sign and state their preference for the presidential primary. If no one else is willing to take charge, simply call the meeting to order and proceed with the meeting as outlined in the packet. Don't let the forms scare you. The minutes are pre-written with blanks to be filled in and that also helps you conduct the meeting. There is a sheet of EZ math so you will know how to calculate how to divide up the delegates.
If, during your caucus Tuesday evening, you have ANY questions at all, about anything, call Eldridge Moak. He went through the volunteer attorneys training to monitor election day voting and precinct caucuses. His cell phone number is 903-721-3349.
