1. Wayne Slater has an article in the DMN on evangelicals attempt to energize voter turnout.
In related news, Perry is going to a Christian school in Fort Worth to sign the parental consent abortion bill and the constitutional amendment to ban homosexual marriages.
2. RG Ratcliffe in the Chron on the developments in the downballot statewide races in 06. Ag Commish Susan Combs is running for Strayhorn's Comptroller seat, in anticipation of Strayhorn's jumping into another race. State Sen. Todd Staples is running for Ag Commish.
3. Strayhorn is the headline speaker tonight at an anti-Trans Texas Corridor rally in Bell County.
Meanwhile, Strayhorn certified the state budget, saying she is "very comfortable that this budget balances."
4. Special session -- AP wire says Craddick prefers to wait for the Supreme Court ruling before doing anything about school finance.
Update: I should note that the constitutional amendment banning homosexual marriages does not need Perry's signature. That "bill signing" is purely ceremonial.
