Request a Speaker
We would love to speak to your group about accuracy, transparency, and accountability in our elections. We don’t just show you what’s broken, we also share how citizens can step up and help fix the problem. It is going to take all of us working together to secure Texas elections.

Ensuring Transparency
It’s a bit cliche, but it is true, sunshine is the best disinfectant. The more access we have to documents and processes, the more we will trust our elections. Let’s discuss how to make that happen.

Protecting Deployed Military Voters, Separate from Overseas Civilians
We have bent the laws to ensure our military have the ability to vote, however these privileges have been extended to all citizens living overseas. This has lead to giant loopholes for shenanigans. We will discuss closing those loopholes on this call.

Stop Billionaire-Concocted Election Schemes
Some election schemes are designed and funded outside the normal democratic process and can undermine the principle that each citizen casts one clear, equal vote under a familiar, constitutional framework. We will discuss ways to prevent the adoption of ranked‑choice and similar experimental voting methods, to keep the State out of national‑popular‑vote compacts, and to preserve straightforward one‑person‑one‑vote elections and traditional party‑nomination structures. We must ensure that core election rules cannot be quietly transformed by novel systems that confuse voters, dilute votes, or bypass the Electoral College.

Citizen Standing to Enforce Election Laws, Appeal Administrative Decisions Under HAVA; Protect Laws from Partisan Legal Apparatus; Accountability & Penalties for Violations
Election laws are only as strong as their enforcement mechanisms and the willingness of citizens and officials to apply them even when it is politically inconvenient. We will discuss ways to give individual citizens targeted standing to enforce election statutes and appeal certain administrative decisions, and to make the election code self‑executing with clear civil and criminal penalties for officials who ignore or violate the law. We must keep enforcement from being monopolized by partisan actors, ensure courts can hear concrete election‑law disputes, and create real consequences for noncompliance.
