DO YOU WANT A VOICE IN WHO REPRESENTS YOU IN THE 2012 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION?
DO YOU WANT TO WIN IN NOVEMBER AND SEND OBAMA HOME?
IF YOU DO, IT’S TIME FOR CONSERVATIVES TO BAND TOGETHER!
JOIN THE SADDLE UP TEXAS STRAW POLL TO CAST YOUR VOTE!
January 12 -14 @ Minute Maid Park
UPDATE!!
Straw Poll Voting Now Available to all Texans via Text!!
The text poll feature will be available to all Texans, with results to be reported separately from in-person voting.
HOUSTON – JANUARY 11: In order to help Texans have a voice in the presidential primary process, Saddle Up Texas organizers have created a free text poll to accompany the in-person straw poll at the Saddle Up Texas Straw Poll event this weekend.
The expanded polling will allow voters unable to attend the event to participate in choosing a candidate. “For too long, Texas has had no voice in choosing presidential candidates. We want to change all that,” said Organizer Dale Huls, who spearheaded the text polling effort. Huls and his fellow organizers believe this expanded polling effort will cause candidates to take notice, and may inspire similar efforts in other states in the future.
The poll will also include the same races featured on the ballot for voters at the Saddle Up Texas event. Text options include the U.S. Senate race, U.S. House races, Texas Senate races and Texas House races. Voters will not be charged for voting in the text poll, and will only be allowed to vote using phones with Texas area codes, and may vote only once in each race.
The Saddle Up Texas Straw Poll text option will be available from noon Thursday, January 12th to 2 p.m. Saturday, January 14th. Instructions for voting in the straw poll are available at http://www.saddleuptexaspoll.com/text , including a link to help voters find their district numbers if needed.
Results of the straw poll will be announced at the same time as the in-person vote results, 5 p.m. Saturday, January 14th.
About the Event:
The three-day straw poll will take place January 12 -14 at Minute Maid Park and has an amazing lineup of conservative speakers, such as Herman Cain and U.S. Senatorial candidates. As I’m sure you know, the second most important race on the Texas ballot is the U.S. Senate race. You will be able to hear the candidates speak and visit their booth for more information. There will be sensational trainings, great music by Kevin Black and Karl Brunig and awesome food! BEST OF ALL? Profits from this event will go to area veterans organizations, such as the Texas Wounded Warrior and the Lone Survivor Foundation, and Get Out The Vote efforts. THIS IS NOT A FUNDRAISER.
The event begins Thursday night with a social mixer and live music on the Club Level where you will get to browse the candidates and vendors booths. Friday morning, we will kick off the event with Dick Armey of FreedomWorks and will have a series of conservative speakers and US. Senate candidates along with quality training sessions. The Veterans Program will take place Friday afternoon with special guest Ted Poe. It will be followed by a concert that evening with Kevin Black and conservative speakers. Also Friday night, we are hosting a VIP Reception where you will enjoy high-end hor d’oeuvres and quality drinks in the Executive Boardroom while chatting with U.S. Senatorial Candidates and other VIPs.
On Saturday, we will conduct the straw poll all day and will host conservative speakers, U.S. Senatorial Candidates and HERMAN CAIN in the afternoon. The straw poll results will be announced between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m. Saturday.
One of our speakers, Karen DeSimone, is the founder of Truth for American Teens and is a frequent guest on the Glenn Beck show. She is an inspiring young lady who is unapologetically Christian and Conservative. This would be a wonderful opportunity to bring your teenagers to learn about and get engaged in the political process.

SOS Plaza is hosting Rick Green’s “Citizens Guide to the Constitution” class. In a short three hours, you will walk away with a practical understanding of our Constitution and our rights as citizens of this great nation.
America is an exceptional country in many ways. The freedom and prosperity we have created for our citizens and many other countries around the world is just one small example. Unfortunately, too many of us, including me, have lost sight of the price and basis of that freedom. This is your opportunity, at a convenient location and limited time investment, to educate yourself (and then your family and friends) about one of the greatest documents and acts of freedom that the modern world has ever known.

Please RSVP to help us get this Tea Party candidate elected!

Ted Cruz is endorsed by Tea Party Senators Jim DeMint, Rand Paul, and Mike Lee and has been dubbed “the next great conservative hope” by National Review magazine. But he also faces a crowded Republican primary field filled with deep-pocketed, establishment RINOs like David Dewhurst and Tom Leppert.

The Henderson County Tea Party invites you to attend a rally to commemorate the birth of Christ and our right to display a replica of the scene of the birth.
We are asking all Patriots who can possibly attend the “It’s our Nativity Scene—Come and Take It Rally” on Dec. 17 at High Noon. The rally will be held on the Courthouse square in Athens, Texas. A Wisconsin organization, The Freedom FROM Religion Foundation has filed a complaint asking the Henderson County Commissioners to remove the Nativity Scene.
We say “No Way!”–Come and Take It!–Let’s show our support for our religious rights, freedom to assemble and our resolve in,” Don’t Mess With Texas!” What a great issue to rally behind– especially as we kick off this vital election season. We must show our resolve and draw the line in the sand. Time to stop this assault from the liberal left and stand our ground.
Juff Tulley -Coordinator of the Henderson County Tea Party has secured a staging location on the Square in Athens. The staging area will be for Tea Party attendees and media.
The location is:Tea Party Headquarters, 112 N. Palestine–on the East side of the courthouse. Direct questions concering the rally to: Jeff Tulley at
