YeeHaw WAY TO GO TARRANT COUNTY :kick:


edit: title

[Kahuna]

1. Is Tarrant a Democratic County? And what state is it in? nt

I believe there is a Tarrant in TX, but there could be one somewhere else. :shrug:

[TBF]

2. It's north of Dallas I believe.

I'm not sure how it trends... the Dallas newspapers endorsed McCain.

[Dr. Death]

3. West of Dallas...Fort Worth is in Tarrant County

Back in the 80s we had Speaker of the House Jim Wright. I haven't lived there since 1989, so don't know about the demographics today (but my heavily republican parents and other relatives still live there).

[MagickMuffin]

4. Texas Yes: Hopefully it will turn BLUE

We are west of Dallas. Fort Worth is county seat.

"Fort Worth Where the West Begins"

[Blue_Roses]

10. Tarrant County is where Fort Worth and surrounding cities are and yes

it is mostly blue except for one "hiccup" called Southlake, which is very upscale and votes mainly repub.

But there are a few Obama signs there, in fact, one of my Obama meetup's was in Southlake, so there is hope:D

[vanderBeth]

11. You don't like Southlake?

Don't you like FOOTBALL!!!!
(okay, that's all I know about Southlake):rofl:

[soccermomforobama]

5. Mu husband and I were two of those 466,468

[MagickMuffin]

6. I'll be voting Tuesday for OBAMA

I was holding out for paper but found out yesterday my precinct isn't going to have paper:cry:

But I'll be there ALL day as I am the Precinct Chair.

soccermomforobama, if you would like to help GOTV go here they have a lot of info on how YOU can help.

8. My husband and I were two more!

[crispini]

7. Dallas 477,455

[MagickMuffin]

9. Hey Crispini: Does that total include the mail-in ballots?.?.?

Our numbers are impressive. I went to the SOS site but couldn't find the overall State numbers.:shrug:

Today I have my Election Training. :woohoo:

[crispini]

13. Indeed it do.

Have fun with your election training!

My #1 piece of advice to judges and clerks. For heaven's sake, break out your poll books into at least three, maybe four parts! :bounce: It's always the sign-in that kills ya!

[thevoiceofreason]

12. Harris County went about 760,000, counting mail-ins.

And huge numbers in our democratic areas!

[MagickMuffin]

15. Great Numbers Harris County

:woohoo: Hopefully Texas will turn a Deep Purple or More BLUE.

McCain is coming to Dallas on Monday.:puke:

[blogslut]

16. Interesting

Why golly, I thought Texas was supposed to be a "safe" state for old man grumpy? Why does he need to come to big D? Does he need to pick the pockets of the good old boys again?

[MagickMuffin]

19. A little Pick Pocketing, but hopefully it will be money WASTED ;=D

My Hubby saw the story so not exactly sure if he's coming for a fundraiser or a rally.

I am soooooo HOPEFUL that TEXAS TURNS BLUE. I'm so tired of Texas getting dumped on because of Mad king Boy George.

I was also hoping Obama would have swung through the State or a few Surrogates but we might get that opportunity in the future if we can make Texas a BATTLEGROUND STATE.:kick:

[rainbow4321]

22. Are you serious? He is coming to Dallas?? WTF? He is pulling an election eve chimp trick

Election Eve 2004 chimpass held a faux rally in the heart of Mcmansion land. An indoor "rally" that was a "ticket only" on the SMU campus..surrounded by all of his zillionaire friends and local repukes, it was televised nationwide..his appearance was at MIDNIGHT so he could sneak into town (hoping to avoid scenes of protestors, no doubt).

It created the illusion for viewers around the country that Dallas/Texas was chimpass country. Too bad Dallas County went 49% Kerry the next night. So imagine what Obama's win results will be like in Dallas County Tuesday night.

Sick of repukes using Dallas and Texas as a prop and getting away with it.

[MagickMuffin]

23. I've tried to find the info on my own but so far I can't seem to find any

I'll ask my Hubby to check his browser history so I can post a link.

[blogslut]

24. I found this

Sez he's going to appear @ the Dallas Shopping Center in Dallas, PA:

link: http://blog.4president.org/2008/john_mccain/

Could that be it?

[MagickMuffin]

25. I bet that's what he saw, he said it didn't mention the State by name

Good McCain can keep his sliminess outta Texas:puke: We've got enough here already.

[blogslut]

26. I want them to ignore Texas

If you know what I mean. ;)

I am hoping against hope for the biggest surprise evar on election night. :)

[rainbow4321]

27. No kidding...like any local repuke pols would want to be seen with him

From what I have read, most of them are even leaving the word "Republican" OUT of their campaign commericals.

Yay...no mcgramps in TX!

[blogslut]

14. I wish the TX SOS site would update early vote totals

to include yesterday.

Hell, I wish it would cover the whole state, instead of only the top 15 counties. Just the same, those 15 counties more than exceeded 3 million voters:

[MagickMuffin]

17. Yippee, We had a pretty good Turn Out in Texas

Thanks for the link, blogslut. I have it bookmarked now.:hi:

I'm surprised that Tarrant County came in third, ahead of Brexar ( San Antonio ) and Travis ( Austin ) for those that don't know our county seats.

Tarrant County has been working Really REALLY HARD to GOTV, and apparently it has Paid off.:kick:

[thevoiceofreason]

18. The bums usually don't update until Monday.

[crispini]

21. damn them, they need to work the weekend like the rest of us!

hahahah.

[tammywammy]

20. That's great news MagickMuffin.

:)

[Saphire]

28. Bexar county in person voters......375,784 . No numbers for mail in's.

[MrsBrady]

29. i was at election judge training tonight (i'm an alternate)

and my particular precinct in tarrant county has voted 40% early.
We have just over 2500 registered voters, so we will probably be very busy on Tuesday.

but 40% is great...and some precincts have had more than that.

really an exciting turnout for a typically red county.

Could we be turning blue? We shall see!!!

GOBAMA!
