Day 22: Daily Democracy Challenge (24 Days 'til Election)
The Rabble | Texas Politics for the Unruly Mob
10/10/20 • 8 min
It's Day 22 of The Rabble podcast's Daily Democracy Challenge, where we count down 46 days of impactful-yet-achievable action items to flip Texas and elect our 46th president.
Only 24 more days until the election and 3 more days until early voting!
TODAY'S ACTION:
This isn't directly related to getting anyone elected, but it is directly related to fighting voter suppression. Today, Saturday, October 10 at 11am there will be a rally at the Texas State Capitol in support of Crystal Mason, who may be sent to prison for 5 years for unknowingly attempting to cast an illegal ballot.
Here's info on the rally.
Can't attend the rally? Pick up the phone and call Gov. Abbott's office. Ask him to pardon Crystal Mason for making an honest mistake and casting a ballot that was never even counted. No harm was done -- don't send Crystal to jail and separate her from her children for this. Gov. Abbott's number is: (512) 463-2000
She also has a GoFundMe as she fights for her freedom: https://gf.me/u/yr2ttp
Ready more about her case here.
TOMORROW! If you are in the Austin area, please join us for a socially distanced, masked, '90s-themed lit drop at 10am. We will be wearing our hottest neons, jamming to '90s throwbacks, eating donuts, and then sticking pre-printed post-its with election info on apartment doors. Safe, fun, impactful.

Today we are multi-tasking for Texas... we're joining a twofer phone bank for Julie Oliver for Congress and Keke Williams for the Texas House.
It's 2-4pm today and you can sign up here: https://www.mobilize.us/julieoliverforcongress/event/299633
Feeling like you'd be terrible at phone banking? We'll be real... your first call might be awkward. But then you'll hit your stride and you'll be sooooo glad you decided to do it. Hit us up on the socials if you need a pep talk! This is one of the most important ways you can impact this election.
Today Becky got a call back from a woman she left a message for earlier in the day when she was phone banking and she was able to connect her with the Texas Voter Protection hotline and it felt SO GOOD to be able to do that! https://texasvoterprotection.org/

Tonight! Join us online to watch the DIGITAL PREMIERE of the documentary we're in! It's called THE PUSHBACK and it's super inspiring (99% because of everyone else in the film, only 1% because of us, haha). Even Mark Ruffalo tweeted about it telling his 6.9 million followers to watch it... whuuuuut! Also, the soundtrack is incredible and was written and performed by Johnny Cash's grandson, Joseph Cash. So cool.
The premiere is 10/5 at 5pm CT and kicks off with a discussion between Beto O'Rourke and Rep. Veronica Escobar moderated by the founding president of Voto Latino. CAN'T WAIT!

TODAY'S ACTION:
Today is all about what some are calling the most important environmental race in the country -- Texas Railroad Commissioner (which actually has nothing to do with railroads and everything to do with oil and gas regulation). We're excited to attend a virtual fundraiser tonight for an awesome candidate -- Chrysta Castañeda. Plus, Erin Brockovich is going to speak! The event is at 5pm and you can get your ticket here: https://bit.ly/3ngxV7g
If you can't attend the event, please do take a few minutes to learn about Chrysta and why the railroad commission is so important. And then share what you learned! I'm scared that without straight-ticket voting people will skip races like this that they might not know about.
Here's a great video about Chrysta: https://www.facebook.com/ChrystaForTexas/videos/437130960532402/
Here's an article about why this position is so important for the environment: https://newrepublic.com/article/158981/chrysta-castaneda-texas-railroad-commission-2020-election-climate
