Event Description:

The Rice University Young Democrats and The Progressive Populist Caucus of the Texas Democratic Party invite Houston City Council candidates to hear a brief presentation on the Election Reform Committee of the Harris County Democratic Party's position regarding the necessity for a voter verifiable paper trail with our Hart Intercivic electronic voting system. Download a flyer for the event.  

We will then encourage questions and dialogue from city council candidates on this issue.

The City of Houston has the authority to build into its contracts for voting systems/services used in city elections provided by Harris County and therefore Council members can influence the direction of such a requirement.

Duncan Hall is located inside Entrance One at the intersection of Main and Sunset. When you the reach Founder's Court (the lawn in front of Lovett Hall that terminates the main drive), Duncan Hall is visible to the right. You will recognize it from the gray column capitals, the blue rails and logs, and those amazing yellow balustrades.

Visitor parking is available in the lots on either side of the Founder's Court.  A credit card is required. Duncan Hall is building #20 below in blue. The closest parking lot is accessible via entrance #2, marked in red - the Founder's Court lot.
