 JANUARY STATEWIDE DAY OF ACTION

Thank you for making it a success!

#TeamCornyn – together with RPT’s Voter Engagement Project and Texans for Greg Abbott – had its biggest turnout yet during the January Statewide Day of Action. With the Senate Firewall and redistricting on the line, hundreds of volunteers came out ready to #KEEPTEXASRED. More than 5,000 doors were knocked on and several elected officials, Republican Women, precinct chairs and more were on-hand for trainings.

Thank you for making this day a success!

GARY GATES KNOCKS ON 18,000+ DOORS, TROUNCES DEMOCRATS

National Democrats “turned an expected loss into an embarrassing loss — and a national spectacle,” says the CEO of the Texas Tribune.

 

Gary Gates, who fended off a tsunami of out-of-state money and Democrat “star power,” won the suburban Fort Bend House seat by 16 points to become Texas’ newest Republican state House member. Republicans across the state mobilized to help get out the word on Gates before the Jan. 28 special election. Gates himself knocked on more than 18,000 doors, in addition to the 89,100 his campaign knocked on. His campaign and volunteers also put in 520 manhours making 25,965 phone calls. This united front flipped the script on Democrats who proclaimed this race to be a bellwether for things to come in 2020.

 

Gary Gates proved that candidates’ hard work and block walking will be a deciding factor in 2020.

DALLAS COUNTY

 

We don’t need to tell anyone in Dallas that Representative Angie Chen Button (HD 112) is a force to be reckoned with. She is a trusted friend and valuable ally. Together with Rep. Button, #TeamCornyn’s Regional Director Mason Morgan is connecting with a local delegation of Vietnamese activists to garner their partnership and support. #TeamCornyn is also working closely with Will Douglas, candidate for state HD 113, to ensure targeted and coordinated outreach efforts.

TARRANT COUNTY

 

We had a great turnout for January’s Statewide Day of Action!

Senator Cornyn is looking forward to attending and speaking at the Tarrant County GOP’s Lincoln Day Dinner this Saturday. U.S. House Minority Whip Steve Scalise will be the keynote speaker, and #TeamCornyn’s own senior advisor/Trump White House advisor/former RPT chair Steve Munisteri will MC the event.

HARRIS COUNTY

#TeamCornyn Regional Field Director William Little spoke to the Austin County GOP this week and helped cut the ribbon on its new Republican Party office. Attendees were fired up in support of Senator Cornyn!
