#31DC2014 31-Day Challenge - Day 28 - Inspired by...a Flag

Texas has a very important governor's election coming up in November. Many people don't realize that, before 1995, Texas had not had a Republican governor in 150 years. Hopefully, after 10 years of Republican rule, a lot of Texans have come to understand why and will start voting for Democrats again (despite our grossly gerrymandered voting map). 

My nail art today features the Texas flag and the design is called "Turn Texas Blue."

Just a few of the important issues riding on this election include the rising cost of college, raising minimum wage and creating more high-paying jobs, developing clean energy technology, protecting women's health, and expanding Medicare (which will create 300,000 jobs and save 20,000 lives). Although Texas has had embarrassingly low voter turnouts in that last 10 years, I hope more people realize that if they want things to change, they have to get out there and vote.

The colors and decorations I used for today's challenge are:

• Wet n Wild - I Red A Good Book
• Sinful Colors - Rain Storm
• OPI - Alpine White
• Wet n Wild - Disturbia
• China Glaze - Spontaneous
• Revlon - Charming
• LA Colors - Aquatics
• Essie - Lilacism
• Fergie by Wet n Wild - Hollywood Walk of Fame

Go Wendy!
