Texas Could Spell Double Trouble

Have you ever wanted to feel important? Well if you are a Texas,you just might on March 4. Texans will have two chances to support their candidate. Texas is the only state in the union where an individual can vote twice legally on the same day, once in a primary, and once in a caucus. The primary results will determine which candidate wins the districts. The caucus will influence the at large votes and party officials. So there's your scoop on Texas. What do you think about their system? Would you even want to vote twice in a day?

Young Adult Democratic SuperDelegate

Jason Rae is one of the youngest party officials and superdelegates. In fact this young adult was part of the DNC even before he was old enough to vote. Now as a college student and a superdelegate his one vote will count for thousands and may be a key vote in the democratic race between clinton and obama.



you can also see a video of jason on AC360.

Want to Get Involved: Look at RESULTS

I hear many times from young adults that they do not know how to get involved in the political system in a meaningful way. Many seem to be disgruntled in the voting process because they have this notion that their votes don't count...Allow me to introduce you to www.Results.org The mission of RESULTS has two parts: to create the political will to end hunger and the worst aspects of poverty, and: to empower individuals in exercising their personal and political power. This organization will walk you through the process of being an advocate in your area for the hungry and poor.
