I just got this from a wonderful Precinct Chair that I had the pleasure of working with a couple weeks ago in some blockwalking of apartments for Donna Howard with University Democrats. I think what impressed me most was the chair contacting all of us with how we affected the election. Now if only we had that in every precinct in Texas!
January 17 Election results for Precinct 218
Kathy Rider 13

Ben Easton 8
Ben Bentzin 63
Vote Total 145
February 14 Election results for Precinct 218
Donna Howard 140
Ben Bentzin 102
Vote Total 242
Notice that voter turnout improved by 97 and that Donna got 79 more votes than in the previous election.
You are proof positive that dedicated people do change voting results even in the face of a barrage of negative advertising.
