Full-spectrum grassroots campaigns — four decades of winning Houston races, from City Council and Congress to the Harris County bench.
Whether you're running for office or running with a team that does, this is your front door.
From a lit drop on Tuesday to a full campaign manager engagement through Election Day — we scope what you need, map out the exact doors and voters that win your race, and execute the ground game that turns conversations into votes.
We're hiring people who can show up, knock the door, and have a real conversation. If you care about your community and you can walk a block, you can earn with us — every cycle.
Pick the piece you need or hire us to run the whole campaign. Either way, the same standard applies.
Direct voter outreach throughout your district — we share your background and qualifications, hand out your literature, respectfully ask for the vote, and coordinate yard sign placement at the door.
Targeted lit drops at homes, churches, events, and high-traffic locations across the district — the right piece in the right hands.
Trained, paid poll workers for Early Voting and Election Day — greeting voters, distributing literature, and speaking on your behalf right where the votes are cast.
Church tagging done right — literature placed on vehicles in approved church and community lots, always respectful and always in compliance with location guidelines.
Targeted calls and texts that share your story, confirm support, and remind voters about Early Voting and Election Day.
4x4 and 4x8 signs placed throughout the district in approved and permitted locations — name recognition on every corner that matters.
Signs up before the event, voters greeted, literature in hands — and everything monitored and retrieved after.
Clear, accurate information about your platform so voters can make an informed, confident decision — that's the mission.
The whole ground game run as one program — strategy, field operations, outreach, and reporting, from filing day through Election Day.
A sample of the candidates Thyra and her ground teams have helped elect — from the Mayor's office and Houston City Council to the United States Congress, the Harris County bench, constables, and Justices of the Peace. Listed in order, 1989 to today — just a slice of four decades of wins.
Most ground operations hand you a spreadsheet somebody typed up after the fact. We built a field system that captures every contact the moment it happens — so what you get is a record, not an estimate.
Every canvasser wears a tap-enabled wristband. A voter touches their phone to it and your sign-up opens instantly on their screen — name, ZIP, and the issues they care about. Fifteen seconds, no clipboard, nothing lost.
Each wristband is assigned to a specific team member, so every contact is traced to the person who made it. You know who is knocking and who isn't — without taking anyone's word for it.
Touch counts by channel — doors, churches, businesses, events — reported every week and backed by timestamped records. No month-end guesswork.
The moment someone is contacted, they receive a text or email with your information and how to reach your office. The conversation at the door keeps going after we walk away.
When a voter raises a problem or asks for help, it's logged with a time stamp and routed to your staff the same day — so nothing said at a door gets lost on the walk back to the car.
Every voter, church, business, and community organization we contact is built into a clean, exportable database — and it belongs to you when the cycle ends.
Forty years of relationships is what gets the door opened. The system is what proves it happened — and hands you a list you still own after Election Day.
Campaigns are how we keep score. But the work is about policy — the things the city actually does, and how they're funded, regulated, and reformed. Ballot measures and policy fights Thyra has worked on the ground for:
Ground operation supporting Houston's red light camera ballot measure. Doors knocked, churches engaged, voters moved.
Houston, TXThyra Burks is a seasoned grassroots campaign professional with more than four decades of experience in political outreach, voter engagement, and field operations — and a former Precinct Judge who faithfully served her community for over 30 years.
Throughout her career, Thyra and her team have helped elect candidates at every level of government — a Mayor of Houston, City Council members, State Representatives, Harris County Judges, Constables, School Board members, and Justices of the Peace — with field operations that now reach Court of Appeals races across multiple counties.
The mission is simple: her team informs voters that you're running, shares clear and accurate information about your platform, and respectfully asks for their support — so voters decide informed and confident. When Houston's leaders need votes, they call Campaign Canvassers.
