10K 4 10R

This last week the RPTVEP formally launched its 10K 4 10R project. 150,000 Republican party activists were sent an email explaining the project to them. The project is a simple one. We are seeking to recruit 10,000 Republican activists who will agree to follow up with 10 people whom we believe to be unregistered Republicans in their area. This would yield 100,000 new Republican voters. In addition to the email blast our staff has begun to distribute volunteer sign-up cards which we are distributing at Republican events and we will soon be calling through lists of party activists to ask them to participate.

We discussed with the leadership of the Texas Federation of Republican Women the concept of them adopting the 10K 4 10R project as an official TFRW project. We are excited to report that the TFRW leadership has agreed to promote the program.

We also discussed the project with the representatives of the Young Republicans, College Republicans, and Young Conservatives of Texas. We expect all these groups to participate.

"EARLY ADAPTER PROGRAM"

Over the past couple weeks we've also launched our “Early Adapter Program." This program entails enlisting candidates for the State House, State Senate, US House of Representatives and countywide officials to begin working with the RPTVEP  in their areas immediately. Specifically in return for the local officials helping to identify and mobilize volunteers for the program the RPTVEP will provide a list of hardcore Republican voters that are unregistered in their districts as well as providing staff assistance for training and follow up. We have had a great response so far to our invitations with almost every targeted elected official agreeing to participate.

EVENTS

The RPTVEP Staff continues to progress toward the goal of registering 100,000 new voters by attending events hosted by Republican groups across the state. 

SOUTHEAST TEXAS:

RPT meet and greet in Brazoria County. Regional Director Steffen Carrillo gave attendees a preview of the 10K 4 10R program and fielded questions. 

Montgomery County republicans gather to hear about the RPTVEP agenda. 

EAST TEXAS: 

Texas A&M College Republicans took the time to learn about the program, several signed up to volunteer as well as several of them registered to vote! 

WEST TEXAS:

Fabens High School (located in El Paso County) graciously allowed former student and RPTVEP volunteer Rodrigo Estrada to register voters and teach students about the importance of civic engagement.

Rodrigo registered 30 new voters; the superintendent of the school district even stopped by to check out the efforts! 

Volunteers in El Paso spent their weekend registering voters at local churches on two opposite sides of town. They were met with a strong response from church attendees who were excited to get the chance to register. Between both locations 40 new voters were registered. 

LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE

 The Leadership Institute sets a gold standard nationally for providing conservative training in campaigns, fundraising, grassroots organization, and communications development. There are more than 210,000 LI graduates including Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw.

LI experts will be traveling across the Lone Star State presenting one-day workshops in over 20 cities with the combined local, regional, and statewide support of the TYRF, TRCCA, TFRW, RPT, and TGA.

Texas Grassroots Activist & Precinct Chair trainings will benefit community leaders, candidates, campaign staff, County Chairs, Precinct Chairs, and grassroots activists.

At each campaign school, you'll learn how to recruit and manage volunteers, organize precincts for voter contact, effectively get people to answer the door, and turn out voters.
