Travis County Democratic Party—An online resource for getting involved in Democratic Party politics in the Austin, Texas area, including upcoming events, blogs, and constantly updated news.

As I’m sure you know, we have a lot of work ahead of us in the coming months to ensure that Travis County continues to reflect the overwhelming majority of “blue” voters that call it home. You helped make this happen in 2010 by winning every State House district for Bill White and electing every countywide Democrat running, despite the Republican tidal wave that swept over the rest of Texas and the nation.

It’s time to roll up our sleeves once again and work hard to elect Democrats from the courthouse all the way to the White House, but first we have to make sure we have a strong Democratic base in Travis County by having Precinct Chairs in every precinct. Please see below to find out if your precinct is vacant, and if so please consider applying to fill the vacancy.

If you know someone who is interested in becoming a Precinct Chair, email tom@traviscountydemocrats or have them call the office: (512) 477-7500. Please forward this on to anyone you know that is interested in serving with the Democratic Party. Thank you for helping us keep Travis County blue in 2012!

*Precinct Chair candidates – The election for the office of precinct chair will be held concurrently with the July 31st, 2012 runoff, with a plurality vote required for election. Candidates for precinct chair may file, amend, or withdraw their application for a place on the ballot no later than 6:00 p.m., June 1, 2012.

KEY: The following list reflects the new 2012 precinct designations since redistricting. Bold names with an asterisk indicate that the Precinct Chair needs to refile with the new precinct number.
