Slate cards at the polls
The single most cost-effective tool in a down-ballot race: a printed card in a voter’s hand as they walk in undecided on everything below Governor.
Judicial races are the least funded and among the most consequential on the ballot. A hundred dollars does more here than it does anywhere above the fold.
Where it goes
The single most cost-effective tool in a down-ballot race: a printed card in a voter’s hand as they walk in undecided on everything below Governor.
Judicial candidates are unknown by design — the bench does not campaign the way a legislator does. Signs, digital and mail exist to close that gap.
Twelve days of early voting plus Election Day is a lot of hours to cover. Paid coordination is what keeps volunteer shifts staffed.
Contributions made through the link above go to the Fort Bend County Democratic Party ActBlue page, which is the account this joint judicial activity has always used. It is not a contribution to any individual judge’s campaign, and it is not tax deductible. To give to a specific judge, use the campaign website on their profile page. Judicial campaign contributions in Texas are subject to statutory limits under the Judicial Campaign Fairness Act.
No money? Still useful.
One volunteer at an early-voting site for four hours reaches more undecided judicial voters than a $500 digital buy.
