What went wrong with @HarrisVotes Ballot By Mail program. A thread.
I reviewed the Ballot By Mail application of 10 of the 20 largest counties in Texas.
#17 Galveston
#14 Brazoria
#12 Montgomery
#9 Fort Bend
#6 Collin
#5 Travis
#4 Bexar
#3 Tarrant
#2 Dallas
#1 Harris
Counties #2 - #6 were selected for their closest size ranking to #1 Harris. The other four were selected as the largest adjacent counties that rank in the top 20.
Here is Harris County's Ballot by Mail application ⤵️
(2) The Texas Secretary of State created a model application; this model was followed by the other 9 counties on my list. Here is the Ballot By Mail application for Tarrant County ⤵️
All the Houston inhabitants** who are interested/willing to speak at Houston City Council

One Safe Houston
Speak on what is bad and what is good about the initiative.
POTENTIAL TALKING POINT:

• $39 MM for "holistic programs"
(con't)
(con't)
• Is there a timeline?
• Are there specific, measurable goals?
• How can the average citizen monitor progress?
• How are the resources being divided by council district?
• ... or: come up with one or two after you review the 18 page presentation (Not much text to read)
