Hey -- Did you see this critical email yesterday?
As elections across the country continue to get delayed or outright canceled, the time is now for Texas election officials to take the threat of the Coronavirus seriously. They must find alternative methods to ensure every Texan has the opportunity to vote.
Thanks -- now let's get to work,

Subject: Re: All-mail elections because of COVID-19, Read my letter to the Texas Secretary of State
Hi,
Moments ago, I sent a letter to the Texas Secretary of State demanding all mail-ballot elections for the May 2 and May 26 elections.
Under the current and projected conditions involving COVID-19, it does not seem viable for Texas to hold meaningful elections in May without universal vote-by-mail. An all-mail election, in which county election officials mail a ballot to every registered voter, is the only option that guarantees Texans' right to vote while also protecting public health.
This goes beyond party or politics, this is a matter of right and wrong. The Secretary of State's office must act before it's too late. Time is of the essence.
Adelante,
Gilberto Hinojosa
Chair, Texas Democratic Party
