DRAG YOUR BUTT TO THE BALLOT BOX …
Ever heard the expression “Vote like your life depends on it”? That has never been more true than it is right now. The upcoming midterms could set the course to take our state and our country forward into a brighter future, or they could set us on a crash course back into the bad old days. The Nuns of Texas Abbey of the Third Coming hope to press that point home with their Drag the Vote Show and Auction Saturday, Sept. 24, at Urban Cowboy Saloon, 2620 E. Lancaster in Fort Worth from 11 p.m.-2 a.m. Come on out to get registered, or if you are already registered, give the Nuns your pledge you will vote.
