Dallas County has never really had a coordinated voter registration and education effort. Groups such as the League of Women Voters have done drives, as have the political parties, MegaVoto, etc. What we have never really done is a consistent year in year out coordinated effort to identify groups to be registered and to get organizations to consistently work with those target voters to get them involved.
I have started up a web site for the Dallas Votes! coalition. I am actively recruiting organizations to join up to work with us and the Dallas County Elections department to register 30,000 voters here in Dallas.
