Looks like John Courage is doing pretty well in the Mapchangers voting - in fact, he's leading the field. Voting runs through July 10, so if you haven't cast your vote for Courage, there's still time. Remember, voting for Courage is the strategy endorsed by fellow Mapchanger finalist Chris Bell, so get out there and vote.

And when you're done with that, head over to Sen. Barbara Boxer's PAC for Change and cast a vote for Barbara Radnofsky. Texas has been a big donor state for Democratic candidates. It's high time we started getting some money flowing into our borders. This one runs through July 21, so you've got time, but there's always no time like right now.
