Houston Democracy Project At LGBTQ Political Caucus

2/7/2024

I went to the monthly Houston LGBTQ Political Caucus meeting tonight to push the Houston Democracy Project. They talked about the recent municipal election. Above you see a slide with the election turnout. 17%

I'm a big a believer in democracy, there are many reasons people feel discouraged from voting & I can't say I found many of the candidates appealing.

But we've got to do better than 17%.

I'm Neil Aquino

I’m a rank & file Democrat, activist and Houstonian who wants to live in a free society. I’ve volunteered extensively for Democratic candidates and causes, and served as paid staff for multiple Democratic campaigns. My work for Democratic campaigns has involved communications and strategy.

I’m an organizer of the Weekly John Cornyn Houston Office Protest. The Cornyn Protest team has been outside Senator Cornyn’s office each Tuesday for seven years now with one clear message: In addition to voting, we must show up physically and non-conventionally for the fights over democracy ahead.

I’m a member of the Southwest Democrats, Tejano Democrats, Bayou Blue Democrats and the Houston LGBTQIA Caucus. I have a political science degree from Xavier University in Cincinnati and ran a Cincinnati City Council office.

I read a lot of books and follow baseball closely.
