Texans – have you done your civic duty today? (If voting in a primary can be considered civic duty.) The folks at Texas State University in San Marcos certainly are in the mood. Newstreamz.com is reporting that in Hays County the “early voting” numbers are more than TWICE the total votes cast in 2004 & 2006 combined. Yowza – thats some serious increase. Visits by Senator Ted Kennedy, Chelsea Clinton, and Barack Obama certainly play into increased voter activity. EDIT: Former President, Bill Clinton just came through town too.

Meanwhile, the Ron Paulers continue their fight…

Of the candidates running, I still tend to identify most with the Ron Paul camp as he is the only one with a good balance of experience in government while not being part of “the system.”
