Your last chance to vote was today, but your work is not done.
Stop the effort to purge grassroots conservatives from the Republican Party of Texas convention process! Show up with conservative friends and participate!
What you need to know:
Precinct Conventions: Some Republican County organizations hold voting precinct conventions at 7 PM as soon as the polls close. Some hold precinct conventions a different day. Find out about your county…
When and Where: Your 2022 Precinct Convention will be held sometime after the polls close on Primary Election Day (March 1, 2022) and before the start of the County/Senate District Conventions (March 26, 2022). Some precinct conventions happen right after the polls close at your polling location; others happen days later at another location. All precinct conventions in your county should be held on the same day. The precinct convention notice should be posted at your polling location, but please check with your local Republican County Chair for the most up-to-date information on where your precinct convention will be held. Click this link to find contact information for your Republican Party County Chair.
For Grassroots America’s home base county – Smith County – our Precinct Conventions will be held Saturday March 5, 2022 at 10:00 AM.
Why attend your precinct convention? You can help build a conservative Republican Party of Texas Platform up from the grassroots level!
Warning: Democrats who voted in the Republican Party Primary can attend GOP precinct conventions and work to pass liberal Democrat resolutions. If conservatives don’t show up, while Democrats and Rinocrats do, guess what happens?
The Republican Party of Texas rules require you to submit THREE COPIES of each resolution at your precinct convention. Bring your conservative friends (who voted in the Republican Primary) with you to your voting precinct convention to help get your resolutions approved! These will then go to your Senate District or County Convention for consideration. If approved at the Senate District/County Convention level, they will go on to the State Republican Platform Committee for consideration.
You may download and print these resolutions or use as a guide to write your own:
A special “thank you” to all who submitted resolutions in the midst of a busy Primary Election Season. These are by no means all the resolutions Grassroots America supports, but these are the ones sent to us by our deadline. We will send more resolutions before Friday as late ones come in. Please note: We cannot possibly fill hundreds of requests to write resolutions for your precinct convention. Please take the initiative and write your own!
Let’s show the DC insiders and the Austin Cartel meddling in the Texas Republican Party that conservatives aren’t going anywhere! Keep the Republican Party of Texas Platform conservative!
When conservatives unite around liberty principles – Freedom Wins!
JoAnn Fleming
Executive Director
Grassroots America – We the People PAC
Thanks for asking, but we just cannot possibly interview all Republican candidates appearing on ballots in all 254 counties.
We are swamped with questions about candidates and cannot possibly send a personalized reply back to each person.
We will be posting even more videos and updates on candidates soon. Yes, we are not pushing early voting this time for a very good reason. Early voting tally tapes are not required to be printed by the Secretary of State at the end of early voting and before early voting equipment is moved. We are NOT suggesting the results should be printed and made public, (which would be illegal) but rather the tallies “memorialized” for use in verifying early voting results. If your county has a paper ballot backup system for early voting, that is better, but for counties without paper ballot backups for early voting, verifying election results for early voting is a problem. Election Day voting is recommended. That is our opinion based on much study and input from subject matter experts. If you disagree, that is your business.
Don’t Know Trayce Bradford, Conservative Republican Candidate for TX Lt. Governor? You should! One of our strongly endorsed candidates, Trayce does NOT support Republicans appointing Democrats to committee chair positions NOR does she support the Republican majority in the TX Senate passing liberal education bills!

SMITH COUNTY, Texas, June 4, 2021 – Today,JoAnn Fleming, Executive Director of Grassroots America – We the People PAC followed Wise County Conservatives in issuing its own “Anti-Endorsement” of Greg Abbott for re-election. [Updated 1.10.22 to reflect failure to call a 4th Special Session.]
Fleming said, “In agreement with the Wise County Conservatives Board, Grassroots America’s Board of Directors is not yet prepared to endorse a candidate for the 2022 Gubernatorial election, but we are fully prepared to announce that we will not endorse the current Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott.
“The singular purpose of government is to protect the liberties of the people. Greg Abbott swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of Texas and yet, for more than a year, he flagrantly broke this vow when he unilaterally, without legislative approval:
closed what he termed ‘non-essential’ small businesses, while leaving Big Box corporate businesses open – destroying jobs, crushing families, and killing lifetime investments;
forced abandonment of elderly family members and special needs children with isolation mandates;
denied Texans access to non-COVID-19 health care by deeming those needs as elective;
fast-tracked a $295 million contact tracing contract, mandated masks, limited freedom of assembly, and shut down schools.
“In addition, even though the Texas Constitution (Article 1, Section 6) protects the ‘natural and indefeasible’ right of worship, Gov. Abbott facilitated the closure of churches by local tyrants throughout the state – in the absence of any legal justification. Finally, the Texas Constitution (Article 1, Section 13) declares – ‘all courts shall be open’ and yet the court system was essentially shut down for months, again in the absence of any legal power granted to the executive branch.
“Two of the nine Texas Republican Party Priorities for the 87th Session sought relief from Governor Abbott’s expansive interpretation of his executive power because Governor Greg Abbott was derelict in his duty to protect and defend the rights of Texans during a time that they most needed an advocate.
“Abbott not once used his influence to pass legislation to end sex change butchery and chemical destruction of children – a Republican Party of Texas Legislative Priority supported by 94.65% of 2020 GOP Primary voters! In the last two legislative sessions, Abbott failed to pass election integrity measures that would strengthen ballot security by reducing the risk of digital/electronic fraud. Texas Governor since 2015, Abbott has failed to verify the registered voter list to remove illegal aliens, felons, the deceased, and double registrations. In 2021, he signed into law SB1, which lowered the criminal penalties for voter fraud from a 2nd Degree Felony to a Class A Misdemeanor and allows political parties and candidates to send out unsolicited mail ballots! He has ignored calls from the People of Texas 4th Special Session to restore criminal penalties.
“Abbott has done nothing to put Texans first by ending the magnets that attract and reward illegal border crossers. For the seven years he has been governor, Abbott has never done more than participate in federal “catch and release” at the border. He has not kept his promise of meaningful, lasting property tax cuts and has instead grown the size and scope of state government. When it comes to our gun rights, Abbott showed a willingness to embrace red flag laws and increase regulatory burdens on gun owners in his 2018 School and Firearm Safety Action Plan. Finally, Abbott has refused to convene the legislature to outlaw Covid-19+++ vaccine mandates while his executive order is ignored.
“Greg Abbott is long on talk but fails to deliver measurable results. During his Disaster Declaration for COVID-19 and his behavior during the past legislative sessions, we learned from Greg Abbott’s own actions that we cannot trust him to protect and defend our liberty. For this reason, above all, we cannot support his re-election.”
For the November 3, 2020 General Election – the Republican vs. Democrat ballot – Grassroots America does suggest voting for Republicans (over Democrats), but we cannot and will not endorse all of them! Our mission is different – we do not endorse Rinos, lazy Republicans, “tone-deaf to liberty” Republicans and those who wink at corruption – ever.
WHY (read carefully) …
The Board of Directors of Grassroots America – We the People sets a very high standard for granting endorsements. We do not make endorsements based on popularity, appeasing interested groups, or on political risk. We are dedicated to raising a higher standard for public office; thus, what incumbent officeholders actually do is far more important than what they say and promise.
During the March Primary Elections, we work hard to get the most conservative Republican candidates elected because that is where voters have the only opportunity to weed out the liberal/progressive Democrat-lite Republicans.
How Some Republicans Lose Our Gold Star Rating
Elected officials are employed by “We the People” and are hired at the ballot box to do a job. For this election, we have not “endorsed” all Republicans because some have badly fallen down on the job – ignored Republican Platform Principles, turned a blind eye to corruption, have too many liberal record votes, have undercut the President every chance they get, voted against conservatives in their district, ignored constituents, placed a higher value on politics rather than upholding the Texas Constitution, followed what political consultants/Gov. Abbott/Lt. Gov. Patrick or self-disgraced Speaker Bonnen advise instead of their own constituents, and/or ignored written communications when they are asked to respond in writing.
Whatever you tolerate – you get more of! Grassroots America will not grant elected “employees” with this type of job performance a “gold star approval” any more than we would give a raise to an employee who consistently failed to show up for work. To do so undermines our mission, our credibility, your God-given rights, the rule of law, and ultimately – liberty.
Below, find our endorsed candidates and those on this “suggested voting list” simply because they were at some point elected as Republicans.
Remember to vote all the way down the ballot! Don’t skip the lesser known races. There are leftist and socialist-leaning wannabes running on the local level. There are also bond elections that will raise your property taxes.
