Tony The Democrat
Tony The Democrat is the Founder of Postcards To Voters. It is the original volunteer-driven grassroots effort to mail handwritten election reminders to Democrats. He was first elected Precinct Chair in Dallas, Texas by a single vote. After serving as the Dallas County Volunteer Coordinator for the Howard Dean for President primary campaign, he joined Lupe Valdez' team to win her runoff election for Sheriff. Precinct organizing became a passion as part of a strategy to turn Dallas County blue. By the time he moved to Georgia in 2013, every county-wide seat had been flipped! In 2017, Tony organized 1,200+ writers to write 51,000+ postcards in one month for a Congressional Special Election. That turned into another postcarding campaign and another until now where over 180,000 writers have supported 500+ candidates with 26+ million postcards.
