One piece of paper that is really important

In a little over a month Texans will file into the voting booth to elect a governor and select many other elected officials. The weird thing about the governor's race is that it seems to be very low key. I haven't gotten any calls or solicitations for donations, a yard sign, a bumper sticker or phone calls asking for my support. It seems weird. I know that I could volunteer or call someone to get a yard sign but usually campaigns are a lot more pro-active about looking for help. It is also disappointing that people don't seem to be too engaged in figuring out who should lead our state or represent us in Washington and Austin.

There are so many issues affecting the average American and most people are dissatisfied with the direction our country is headed but you can count on probably very little change in our government because of low voter turnout.

I'm registered to vote (although I haven't decided who to support). Are you?
