Holy chomoly! I can't believe it's only 30 days until the big one! Time really does fly. I am cautiously optimistic but still somewhat worried. I have to fight the feeling of euphoria after the Democratic National Convention and remind myself not to be too optimistic and over-confident because there is still work to be done. I try not to look at the polls because polls don't vote - people do. We must understand that the race is still very tight and we should work like this election will be decided by the very last voter we contact.
Even though the presidential race dominates the news, the down-ballot races are also critical. As Indivisible has reminded us, even as we elected Joe Biden and defeated Trump in 2020, Democrats actually lost seats in the House. With so much on the line in this election, that’s not something we can afford to repeat this year. If we want Kamala Harris to pass her agenda -- on reproductive rights, democracy reform, gun violence prevention, housing, and healthcare -- we must elect strong Democratic majorities in both the House and the Senate.
I don't know who said this, but it is so true: we no longer have a difference of political opinion; we have a difference in morality. A few days ago , I heard General Stanley McChrystal on CBS Face the Nation. He is backing Harris because, as he said, "character is very important". This is a good point for us to use when talking to family and friends. Character does matter. Rather than discuss issues, we can discuss character. This election is about which person has the character to preserve our democracy and lead the United States.
We have 30 days left. Talk to your friends and neighbors. Write postcards. Make phone calls. Knock on doors. When you wake up on November 6, you want to feel good that you did everything you could do to stop Donald Trump.
We can do this!

Guest Speaker:
HERB KRASNER
| |
|
Since retiring in 2017 from his senior faculty position at UT, Herb has been involved with several community oriented projects that he has found interesting and challenging to work on. These include projects such as:
-
Making sure that everyone in the Texas Hill Country has access to high speed broadband internet (aka ConnectedBurnetCounty)
- Writing and consulting on the problems of poor quality software/IT/computer systems
- Providing community support to help feed the local disadvantaged
- Serving as a state certified election poll watcher
-
Taking care of his family (which includes his 4 teenage granddaughters)
- Trying to remain a political Independent during these divisive times
- Fixing some of the critical problems here in Texas
His presentation, Explaining and Exposing The School Choice/Voucher Situation:
What We Might Get If We Don’t Act will explore the facts and data behind the current controversy known as “school choice” or “school vouchers” from the point of view that “public schools are for the public good” and are the cornerstone of our fragile democracy.
His presentation slides can be viewed here: http://www.hldw.org/blog#/

LAURA BRAY
Kendall County Democratic Party Chair
NOTES FROM THE CHAIR
We have LOTS of signs, stickers, and buttons at the office, including plenty of Harris/Walz signs and many others. They aren’t doing us any good in the office! Please stop by and pick some up for your yard and car, and let your friends and family know. Office is open Monday through Saturday from 11am-2pm. Sugges:ed donation for signs is $10, and stickers/buttons are $5/each. Official signs frm the 2024 Democratic National Convention (authenticated by me!) are $20 each.
We’re in the home stretch and we need everyone helping! Here are some ways to help:
-
Calls: We will have an active phone bank from now until Election Day, and we need LOTS of folks making phone calls! Call or email Kevin (830-331-0672, khenning@mac.com) if you need training. He can train you in 20 minutes or so on the phone. Kevin has found that making calls between 4 to 5 pm works well. Current phone bank code is 775CC5A-843742
-
Blockwalk: Research has shown that blockwalking is the single best tool for ensuring our voters get to the polls. We’re now holding blockwalks in Boerne and Comfort. To volunteer in Boerne, email Debra Bird at Debimc33@gmail.com; for Comfort, email Peg Layton at layton.peg@gmail.com. If you’d like to organize a walk of your own in your neighborhood or elsewhere, let me, Peg, or Phil/Kelly know so we can create a walk list for you. MiniVAN Is an app for your phone that’s easy to use and eliminates the need for paper lists (and the data entry after the walk).
-
Booth at Early Voting: Monday, October 21 through Friday, November 1, during early voting hours at the Kendall County Courthouse Annex (221 Fawn Valley Dr). Sign up here to help us greet voters and share candidate information.: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49A4AC29A5FBC16-51779560-early#/
Don’t miss candidate our candidate forum featuring Dr. Kristin Hook (running for US Congress District 21), Dr. Merrie Fox (running for Texas Senate District 25), and Dwain Handley (running for Texas House District 19). It’s Wednesday, October 9 at the library.
We only have one month left, and we need EVERYONE’S help. If you haven’t signed up to DO something (phone calls, block walks, a shift at the early voting booth, etc.) SIGN UP NOW so we can
Go WIN THIS in November!

Volume 26. Issue 9. September 2024 | |

Wow, the enthusiasm continues! There is joy in the air! What a relief to finally feel hope instead of dread. What a great feeling to be optimistic instead of cynical. It feels good to be a part of a political party that values common sense over nonsense and inclusion over retribution. We are united in our spirit of hope!
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz exemplify our values. They show true leadership and character, unlike the opposition. What a contrast! Our candidates, coupled with the incredible, inspiring, confidence-instilling Democratic National Convention, have given us a renewed sense of purpose to work for the promise of a better tomorrow.
However, we still have work to do. Recently I read this by Ezra Levin, cofounder of Indivisible: "This is not a party that is unified on all issues -- it’s a big tent party with some reasonable disagreements -- but it is deeply unified in its purpose. The vibes are so good, in fact, that there’s almost a sense of historic inevitability. But we all have to fight that feeling. Nothing about this is naturally inevitable -- it’s our work that will make it so."
There are still 58 days until the election. We have work to do. Everyone must step up and DO SOMETHING. And there's plenty to be done. You can write postcards. You can make phone calls. You can talk to your neighbors, friends, and family. You can block-walk and knock on doors. Some of these things are easy and some are hard - but they need to be done - and they can make the difference between winning and losing. We don't want to be on the losing side ever again, so please - step up and volunteer to do something!
As Tim Walz has said, we can sleep when we're dead. Now it the time to give it all we've got for a better tomorrow for everyone! Remember - when we fight, we win!

LAURA BRAY
Kendall County Democratic Party Chair
Before you read my Convention report below:
Many of you shared that you watched the Convention and were completely energized.
GREAT!
Now what’s ONE THING MORE you can sign up to do to help???
If you need ideas, email me at chair@kendalltxdemocrats.org
The Democratic National Convention (DNC) was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life! By my count, I heard speeches from:
· Three Presidents (favorite speech: Barack Obama)
· One Vice President (favorite speech: Kamala Harris)
· Four First Ladies/Second Gentleman (favorite speech: Michelle Obama)
· Five sitting or former Cabinet Secretaries (favorite speech: Pete Buttigieg)
· Eleven Governors (favorite speech: Andy Beshear)
· Eighteen US Senators (favorite speech: Elizabeth Warren)
· 27 US Representatives (favorite speech: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez)
among countless others. Visit the DNC’s YouTube channel to have another look at the speeches.
And saw performances by (among other, lesser-known performers):
· Stevie Wonder
· Patti LaBelle
· John Legend and Sheila E
· Pink
· The Chicks
My sister saw me on CNN that first night (see photo below), but other than that, I didn’t “pop up” anywhere else in the national coverage, as far as I know. Not hardly surprising, given that there were 10K people on/near the floor.
Tuesday night’s Roll Call of the States was surprisingly entertaining. I’ve reported before that, due to some screwy filing deadlines in Ohio, the DNC held a Virtual Roll Call about ten days prior to the Convention to officially nominate VP Harris. So the Tuesday night Roll Call was purely ceremonial. DJ Griffith kept the energy going as the DNC Secretary called on each state/territory to report its vote. When a state was called, its seating area was illuminated (a masterwork of lighting logistics), and the designated speaker appeared on the JumboTron (and your TV screens). Georgia “won” the “Best Roll Call Announcement” when they rolled out rapper Lil Jon to introduce their segment. Texas’s announcement focused on the state’s strict abortion ban and featured Eva Longoria, former Planned Parenthood Chair Cecile Richards, and Kate Cox, the woman who had to flee the state to get a life-saving abortion. TDP Chair Gilberto Hinojosa then announced the Texas vote (rather ungraciously, I might add).
The days were long (credential pick-up every day at 6am at the Texas hotel, and evening speeches weren’t over until 11pm). But the energy every evening at the United Center was completely electric. Security was tight, and despite some protestors, everything proceeded mostly without incident. (Some logistical problems notwithstanding.)
I met some amazing folks from around the state and around the world. (US territories abroad had delegations, and I traded a pin with Angelo (pictured below) from the Northern Marianas!)
When I walked into the arena that first night, I stopped and did two things: 1) Told my Mom, “Look Mom, I made it!” and 2) felt your presence behind and around me, and wrapped myself up in it. You were *absolutely* there with me in spirit. It was truly my honor to represent you on the national level.
Let’s go WIN THIS in November!

Our new Democratic billboard is up along IH-10 just south of Comfort!
This sign will be displayed until Election Day.
We need to raise $3,000 to fund this sign.
This sign is an important tool in our "Get Out the Vote" efforts. We want folks in Kendall to know that there are Democratic candidates on the ticket - the only candidates who will save our Democracy.
Any funds raised above the $3K goal will fund more Get Out the Vote efforts to make sure every Kendall Democrat gets to the polls this November.
Can you help us cross the finish line?
To make a donation online through ActBlue, click here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/kendall-county-democratic-party--tx--1
