How Kamala Harris Can Turn Texas Blue

exas Democrats are already preparing for historic turnout in November, and Harris can help mobilize several key constituencies that could help flip the state.

An increase in turnout in Black communities across Texas would give Democrats a powerful boost, and Harris is uniquely qualified to energize that base.

Not only is Harris the first Black woman to join a national ticket, but she’s also the first HBCU graduate to achieve that feat. Harris packed a gymnasium at Texas Southern University in Houston in an early 2019 campaign stop that was the first major visit from a 2020 Presidential candidate in Texas. With nine Historically Black Colleges and Universities in the state, Harris could energize a new generation of Texas voters in November.
