2024 Election Voter Registration and Rules catch all thread

Recommended Posts

FYI for Texas new voters, 

Texas law requires eligible voters to register by the 30th day before Election Day. The last day to register to vote in the Nov. 5 General Election is Monday, Oct. 7, 2024.

Early voting for the general election begins on Monday, Oct. 21, and ends on Friday, Nov. 1. The last day to apply for a ballot by mail is Friday, Oct. 25.

I always vote the first week of early voting for one reason - Election Day has a higher chance of incidents / violence, longer lines too.

Everyone feel free to check in on getting registered, checking your status and dropping your ballot. No shame if you're voting for the first time. There is shame if you're registered and don't vote, quit being lazy.

Alexander Hamilton

“This process of election affords a moral certainty that the office of President will seldom fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications.”

 

Keith Ellison

"Not voting is not a protest. It is a surrender."

 

Thomas Jefferson

“We do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate.”

 

Plato

"One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors."

 

George Carlin

“If you don’t vote, you lose the right to complain.”

Great thread to have.  On KBTX news last night they ran a story about a woman in Brazos County who is challenging hundreds of voter registrations at the county voting office.  While almost all of the challenges are thrown out, some are not, and I bet that other voting officials aren't being as conscientious about it.  I suggest that everyone check their voter registration status at https://www.texas.gov/living-in-texas/texas-voter-registration/ to make sure that they haven't been improperly removed from the voter rolls.  Get your family and friends to check, too.
