Come Join Us to share the excitement as we watch the Primary Election Results for this historic 2026 Democratic primary with candidates for every seat in the US House, plus every seat in the Texas House, and every seat up for election in the Texas Senate. We have Statewide elections, many with primary opponents, for US Senate, Texas Governor, Lt. Governor, Attorney General and more. This will be an important moment as together we determine the Democratic slate for the November General Election (and also see who will be the Republican opponents).
We have a patio room (closed in and climate controlled) overlooking the lake at Angelina’s Don Fanciso’s restaurant in The Colony, not far from HWY 121 and Josey/Main (423). Delicious Tex-Mex food and beverages available for purchase (and please do to support our use of the space).
The polling place lines close at 7 PM. Our event will start at 6:30 PM. Bring a friend and be part of the energy.
One Community – Diverse But Not Divided.
