ROMBA is also offering a special registration discount for Dallas-area professionals, making this an especially accessible opportunity to experience a national conference without the added expense of airfare or hotel accommodations.

National Voter Registration Day is September 15 and the deadline to register to vote in Texas is October 5. Check your registration today to make sure your information is current. Even if you voted as recently as the March primary election, there are reports of registration status changing unexpectedly and registrations being suspended.

More than 1.2 million Texas voters are currently on the state’s voter suspense list. That doesn’t mean they are no longer registered or can’t vote. It generally means election officials need to confirm the voter’s current address. If a status has changed, you can also re-register. https://www.votetexas.gov/index.html
