What’s on the ballot?
Look for bond elections on your ballot! ALL bond elections raise taxes (no matter what the spin masters say) because bonds add more public debt, which is paid by taxpayers (not by Santa Clause or the tooth fairy). When public debt is added, tax burdens are increased. If you are over 65 and your property tax on your homestead is frozen (not every taxing entity offers this), and a bond election passes, you still get a tax increase. How? The debt portion of your tax rate NEVER goes down! As more debt is added, your annual taxes might stay about the same on your home, but they certainly will not go down as they would if the old debt was paid off and no new debt was added.
Look for school board trustee races (some school districts wait to hold school board elections in November). There are also races for city mayors, city council members, community college boards and special water district representatives.
So, what’s the big deal about these elections? They’re just local and I only care about what Washington DC does to us.
Glad you asked! The local officials you hire at the ballot box:
- pass Washington DC garbage down to the local level through the federal grant programs they love because this “free money” has federal strings;
- are responsible for the property tax bills you say are too high;
- can saddle you with more public debt through bond elections, increasing property taxes;
- spend your local property & sales tax dollars – either wisely or foolishly;
- set the tone for the culture of your community with sound, principled values or with WOKE, liberal, socialist values that harm children, grow government, and shred liberty. Local officials CAN stop smut in schools and public libraries and can stop drag queen perversions acted out in front of children. Yes, they can, but will they?
How Do I Know if Candidates are Republican or Democrat?
By law, city, school board, community college, and special purpose district races are non-partisan on the ballot; therefore, there will be no party designation listed there; however, you can find out which party primary they vote in, if they vote at all, or if they are only general election voters (which means there’s no way to tell what they are).
Has your County Republican Executive Committee posted candidates’ historical voting record information (public record) so that voters can at least determine if they are voting for a Republican, a Democrat, a swing voter (general election only) or a non-voter? If they have not, you might ask why not. Do you want to elect candidates who don’t vote at all or who vote for Democrats to be in charge of your schools and your tax bills? If your local GOP is all for the RED TEAM in November, then why aren’t they informing voters about the voting records of local candidates?

Click here for a GREAT example of what County Republicans can (and really should) do to help voters choose wisely in local elections! Bravo Brazoria County Republicans! This is how you keep socialists and cultural Marxists from taking over local government – just simply provide voters with facts about how these candidates vote (or not)!
Grassroots America’s team ran a check on the voting history of candidates appearing on the Smith County ballot because it is our home base county. Click here for Smith County election information.
Do your homework! Your vote might prevent a Leftist from gaining office!
