In Texas Democrats can Abolish the Texas Two Step NOW

The resolution below needs to be proposed and passed at the Democratic Precinct Conventions in Texas Tues., March 2nd (after the polls close)

Resolution to Select All National Delegates Based on Presidential Primary Results
Whereas, it is a Democratic Party principle that each Democratic voter’s vote should have equal weight;
And the presidential selection caucus system makes some Democratic voters’ votes more important than others;
Whereas, it is a Democratic Party principle that all Democrats should have easy access to the ballot;
And the presidential caucus is unavailable to many Democratic voters because of the weekday evening hour if they work, have small children, are disabled, are homebound, in the military or out of county;
Whereas, Democratic voters are allowed to cast their primary vote by mail or during the two weeks of early voting to accommodate varied working and travel schedules as well as the needs of those over the age of 65 and the disabled;
And the caucus vote is at only one hour on one day;
Therefore, be it resolved that the Texas Democratic Party shall institute true democracy in the presidential primary process by abolishing the hybrid system of allocating presidential delegates by a combination of primary and caucus results and instituting a delegate allocation system based solely on the presidential primary results.
Passed by the precinct convention held in Precinct ____________ Senatorial District ___________ on March 2, 2010.
