In 2008 Mi Famila Vota increased voter turnout by 20% where we ran civic programs and engaged large numbers of Latinos who were infrequently active in the Democratic process.
We increased turnout in the Rio Grande Valley are where MFV-TX conducted civic participation programs that engaged Latino citizens.
In Dallas County, MFV-TX increased Latino vote partication by 100% with our civic engagement programs.
In 2010, MFV-TX is building on our past success by engaging more Latinos to participate in the US Census, register to vote, and become US Citizens.
