PEARLAND KEY AREAS OF FOCUS

 

West Pearland: 

 

Brazoria Precincts 66, 50, 59, 67, 69, 72, and 71, in order of voter density.

• Precincts 50, 67, and 71 are either especially apartment dense or relatively spread out, so a targeted digital campaign would serve this area well.

• West Pearland Library or West Pearland Community Center are both great options for voters here. 

• This is our STRONGEST base support area - they need less convincing, but more motivation and persistence via text, door knocking, calls, and digital targeting to follow through. 

• Highlight the Early Voting hours are limited to 8am-5pm, and to make a plan.
   

 Fort Bend Precinct 2134

• Can lean onto name recognition and highlight endorsements from established elected officials in this precinct - County Commissioner Prestage, State Rep. Reynolds (HD 27), and County Sheriff Eric Fagan

• They will need to vote in Brazoria County - direct them to West Pearland Library

• Strong base support area, need engagement to follow through. Door knocking has been especially helpful here. Highlight the Early Voting hours are limited to 8am-5pm, make a plan. 

 

East Pearland: 

 

Brazoria Precincts 46, 28, 18, 37, 51, and 52 in order of voter density.

• Recurring complaints from this area have been water issues - high water bills and poor water quality. 

• Wiltz is offering a better Pearland, not “business as usual” (real quote from Carbone’s campaign page.) 

• Democratic voters ONLY, lowest priority for direct campaign messaging. Best mediums would be digital and texts.

 

Harris County precincts 1116, 537, and 1090, in that order. 

• Do not always feel like part of Pearland - will need to be encouraged to show up. Target should be Democratic Primary voters, emphasizing that they need to continue to vote and make a difference.

• They have to vote in Brazoria County - direct them to Tom Reid Library.

• Dense turf for door knocking, digital targeting. 

 

Central Pearland:

 

Brazoria Precincts 62, 29, 54, 13, 27, 26, 12, 41, and 47, in order of strategic importance.

• Have strong union presence/blue collar workers 

• May be able to capture folks from all demographics/voting histories, but should  prioritize Democratic primary voters and Union members. 

• Tom Reid Library and West Pearland Community Center are both potential polling options for voters here, depending on their proximity.

• Precincts 62, 26, 27, 12, 41, and 47 are all apartment dense, spread out, or relatively inaccessible in areas, making them a great option for digital messaging.

• Highlight the Early Voting hours are limited to 8am-5pm, make a plan. 

• Highest priority for direct voter contact after West Pearland, with an emphasis on door knocking.

 

Things to know about Tony Carbone: Website

• “Making a plan for aging infrastructure”

  • After 13 years in City Council, why is he only now making a plan? Why would voters trust him to implement it? Who will hold him accountable if he fails to do so?

• “Teamwork & Respect for Process: The same straightforward leadership”

  • Are voters happy about their leadership? Why would they want more of the same?

• “Tony’s family has roots six generations deep in Pearland” 

  • Quentin and his wife raised a family in both Pearland and Alvin ISD's (East and West Pearland), and embodies the lived experience that resonates with Pearland as a whole. 

  • Pearland is attractive to transplants coming here for opportunity, not just the same families who have passed unearned roles amongst themselves for generations. We need leadership who will serve everyone, not just their families and friends.​
