GOP Volunteers walking blocks for judicial candidates |
True, the shoe is on the other foot, if you will, in regard to having a Republican president vs. having Obama in office. That gives the Democrats reason to be fired up, much like the right and the tea party was back in 2008. However, the Democrats would do just about anything; well, they will do anything to get their guys elected. They'll use any means necessary, even ones that are illegal. This is not news, folks, just reiterating the importance of the Republican activist to be on top of their ground game.
Harris County Republican Party (HCRP) IS on top of the Grassroots Ground Game. They're working with precinct chairs, grassroots activists and candidates alike to ensure Republican victory this November. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. So, take a look for yourself at some of our awesome grassroots activists getting out the vote for our Republican ticket.
There was talk of a 'blue wave' during the primary and Senator Ted Cruz said that, "Democrats would crawl over broken glass in November to vote." Now, I personally loathe when politicians use those kind of scare tactics to get their base agitated and motivated. I'm not saying he's totally wrong, either, about the broken glass thing, but the primary proved that Republican voters are more energized and motivated to go to the polls and vote.
Still don't believe the Republicans are more engaged and focused on winning than the Democrats? Take a gander at these stats coming straight outta HCRP headquarters, from none other than our political director, Donna Stanart. "Since January, the Harris County Republican Party has been hard at work to elect all of our Republican candidates from the top all the way to the bottom of the ballot. We've knocked on almost 200,000 doors and we've called about 115,000 voters in order to secure Republican victory."
