MY TEXAS VOTES
Shareable Resources
The Texas Democratic Party has created these resources to help you share accurate, just-in-time voting information with voters.
This page is constrained to procedural information and does not venture into issue-based messaging. The resources below include language you can copy/paste onto your other literature, social media graphics and posts, and editable, downloadable fliers.
Resources for Candidates & Partisan Voter Outreach Groups
If you’re allowed to support candidates and/or the Democratic Party, please use these resources! They include websites and the Voter Assistance Hotline run by the Texas Democratic Party so we can ensure the best quality of support for voters.
Copy/Pasteable Language
Handouts/Fliers for Voters

4 Steps to Voting by Mail – Consider printing these out and sharing them at events with a large number of Democratic senior citizens (e.g., Bingo nights, assisted living facilities) or having them at your table for those folks at parades, community events, etc.

Handouts for Your Campaign Volunteers/Staff
Voting FAQs (including Vote by Mail FAQs)
Vote by Mail Application - This is a version of the VBM application you can print out and bring with you to events/block walking, from the League of Women Voters and Center for Civic Design. It is more user-friendly than the official Secretary of State version. Please be sure to print and hand out both the application and the instructions.

Non-Partisan Resources
If you are looking for resources that are non-partisan, feel free to use the voter information language from these resources to incorporate into your work. All the websites and hotline number listed direct to official government sources or 501(c)(3) non-partisan organizations. If you aren’t sure if you’re able to use this language and information, consult with your counsel.
