Jim Hightower fired up the Our Revolution crowd with his wit but was very serious about mobilizing Progressives to take back our government. This meeting occurred a few weeks after the first Our Revolution Gulf Coast Region organizing meeting.
He hit Trumpcare saying, “They can’t even do wrong right.” After firing up the crowd, Matt Martinez gave a short speech and the voting was on.
Our Revolution Gulf Coast Region subdivided itself to overlay its State Senate District structure. District residents voted for 13 leaders out of those districts.
The following leaders were elected to organize each Senate District.
- SD04 – Perry Pinkley, Natalie Ward SD06 – Albert Davila
- SD06 – Albert Davila
- SD07 – Anastasia Norton

- SD13 – Jason Berkman, Warren PriceSD15 – Gary West
- SD15 – Gary West, Tarah Taylor
- SD17 – Anne Rosenwinkel, Amanda Chang

The attendance to this election was above and beyond what was expected.
