It is a daunting task to build an army of activists. You guys are amazing and humble me.
I just got into the program we’re using and re-ran all the numbers. If you’ll remember, I posted the chart on January 5th showing how each state stood in our RedState Army.
Well, two days have gone past since I posted that and you guys are amazing. We’ve grown, in two days, from 5,254 to 5,906. We’ve gone up in every state except Vermont and Wyoming.
In Georgia we went from 353 to 410. Pennsylvania is now just two shy of 300. And Texas is closing in on California.
See the updated chart here. Thanks guys. This is going to be so awesome.
We’ve already sent out our first state specific blast — in Toledo, OH there is going to be a meeting on the 12th to do a charter amendment about red light cameras. Thanks to you guys, we were able to email a number of readers in Toledo and other parts of Ohio about it.
And we’re about to start targeting wayward GOP Senators who have been attracted to the siren call of liberal tax harpes.
If you haven’t but want to, you can sign up to be part of the RedState Army of Activists below the fold.

A political party cannot be all things to all people.
It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.

Doc Holliday Thursday, January 8th at 1:20AM EST (link)Texans have a pride not equated in this country. I would say Viiginians as similar, but the pride is a little less in your face. Either way, tell your boys to remember the Alamo and lead this charge!

Should I resign up - or is there a way...
Elizabeth Christian Wednesday, January 7th at 11:56PM EST (link)to fix my RedState Strike Force logo - or is it showing up on your screen? On mine it is a question mark? and it does have a link that says “Join the RedState Strike Force” (you can see below). Maybe it shows up correctly on other peoples screens?
I copied and pasted the code that was provided when I signed up? Any suggestions?

Nahhh
Erick Brockway Thursday, January 8th at 12:12AM EST (link)bs showed me the way. After you paste the thing, go thru and delete all the ” quote marks and re-type them. For some reason they don’t translate.

I say this is grounds for a Redstate gathering of sorts.
scottbomb Thursday, January 8th at 12:02AM EST (link)Good job, Erick. That’s a lot of people. And just look at those numbers from Texas! Eclipsed only by…. California? I’m shocked. Maybe there is hope for the Golden State.
As a side note, I reckon we’ve got enough in DFW alone to throw a party. Anybody up for taking over a restaurant?
[Please forgive me for using the word "reckon". I was born in the midwest and swore I'd never say that redneck word, yet there I go. Texas kinda grows on ya like that....]

Just for the record

I assume you're talking about California
scottbomb Thursday, January 8th at 1:10AM EST (link)But look at the bright side, Erick. Yours is the most populous state and ours is the second most populous. NY comes in 3rd. Looking at these numbers, there appears to be the same order. That’s a good thing! Translating that into electoral college votes is our biggest challenge. People assume Texas is safe but it’s not. The big cities are blue and they tend to attract more people (especially those dependant on government of course).

You are too humble Erick
Doc Holliday Thursday, January 8th at 1:22AM EST (link)I know you are discussing this effort, and that is good, but you really are big time. I once said you should use more body motions on tv, but that was just constructive criticism. I have yet to see anyone you faced on tv beat you on the facts, not once.
Molon Labe!
I guess I made a silly assumption
Raven Thursday, January 8th at 8:41AM EST (link)With RS 3.0 we had a RS Activism group and I kinda thought my membership there would be carried on over.
Guess not…
