I've posted about this at least 2 other times on this blog, but I don't think it can be emphasized enough ... If you don't vote, don't bitch! (Again, all the credit for that pearl of wisdom goes to my mom.)
From the Texas Secretary of State website:
The deadline to register and be eligible to vote in the November 4, 2008 General Election is October 6, 2008. This can be either the postmark date or the date the application is received in the office of the voter registrar. You may, of course, register at any time before that date to ensure that your registration is effective for voting in November. You can obtain a voter registration application from your voter registrar's office, libraries, most post offices, high schools, or from this office.
For everything voter registration related check out their website.
