2012
After a far too long absence, we are coming back! Looking forward to finishing what we started in 2010 by defeating Obama in 2012. Stay tuned...
The Obama Team and the Democratic National Committee have Texas in their sights—and they are investing unprecedented resources to take over our state. In response, the Hands Off Texas! Movement was formed as an ongoing effort to empower average Texans to fight back and protect and strengthen our Republican majority in Texas.

Texans sent an overwhelmingly loud and clear message to President Obama and the Democratic Party to keep their HANDS OFF TEXAS by electing the highest number of Republicans to the Texas House in state history. And on top of that, we won every statewide seat and picked up three additional seats in the United States Congress. Election Night could not have gone better. Here's a breakdown of what happened and the list of your new members of the Texas House of Representatives...
Stay tuned for live updates after the polls close at 7 p.m. on Tuesday night here on the Hands Off Texas! Blog and our live broadcast from the Texas GOP Election Night Watch Party in Buda, Texas...
This is the day we’ve been waiting for: our chance to send the ultimate HANDS OFF TEXAS message to President Obama and the Democratic Party by voting—and voting REPUBLICAN. If you haven’t already voted early, please make sure you stop by your local polling place and vote before the polls close at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
We've made a stand and told President Obama and the Democratic Party to keep their HANDS OFF TEXAS. On Tuesday, Texas voters will send the final message. Once the polls close, you are invited to join us for an election night watch party for all our Republican candidates on the ballot. We hope you can join us...
Apparently not. Meet Genevieve Van Cleve, the Deputy Political Director of Annie's List – a liberal front group for the Texas Democratic Party that is funding a handful of targeted Texas House races around the state that is “dedicated to changing the face of power in Texas politics”. Meet the real face of the Texas Democratic Party...
Help us finish strong by volunteering a few hours this weekend to make phone calls or knock on doors on behalf of our great Republican candidates. We absolutely need your help during the final push in the last 72 hours leading up to Election Day next Tuesday, November 2nd.
The best thing about voting straight ticket Republican is that in addition to automatically casting your vote for REAL “change”, you get the peace of mind of knowing you voted for the most qualified, most experienced group of conservative, principled leaders on the ballot. Here is your 2010 Statewide Republican Team...

This morning, Vice President Joe Biden sent out a fundraising email through the Obama Campaign and said something that actually makes sense: “There's only one way to wake up the morning after an election — with no regrets.” We couldn’t agree more...
In case you missed it, a few weeks back we launched a segment on the Hands Off Texas! Blog called “FIVE QUESTIONS”—a chance for our candidates to unbutton their collars, roll up their sleeves and share some things about themselves with you—the voters. It was a great series, and if we had more time before Election Day we’d keep it going. As we head into the final weekend, take a moment to read through the interviews with the candidates who sat down with us…
Here’s some Thursday morning humor for you. One of our Houston area supporters sent us this great clip from an old Bob Hope movie from 1940 and we wanted to share. The more things change, the more things stay the same…
We’ve launched a new tool that enables all Texans to become personal online fundraisers to help pay for our statewide get-out-the-vote effort during the final 72-hours of this critical election.
