Comments, please. Media, mighty quiet tonight on election politics for some reason. No exit polls, no nothing.

Not a word on Philly local TV - you’d never know there was any sort of election in Texas - apparently the blue wave of enthusiasm got lost at sea......

I heard the media crowing this morning.

Now I read this.

Your vanity makes me smile like the Cheshire cat.

While this is a primary, the results cannot portend anything positive for the Dems.

1,199,597 Cruz vs 554,249 O’Dwerp.

Not gonna bother with the other races.

It doesn’t improve.

For the last several days, all I’ve heard is how the RATS performed better at early voting than the R’s. So tonight I go on the dallasnews site to see the results. I find out that Cruz, Abbott, Patrick, etc. got a TON more votes (by themselves; admittedly not all have been counted, but they all had some challenger(s)) than the TOTAL of the same RAT primary. The RAT Gov. race will be a runoff of 2 candidates with around 600K votes between them (other candidates got additional votes). Abbott got well over a million.

The fact is that the RATS do not turn out well in off-year elections. I don’t know what happened in early voting, but I voted today and I usually vote early. My guess is that most races in Texas on the R side aren’t that competitive and many voted today or not at all.

I got to cast my vote for the first time in Texas today. Moved here in December. I’m feeling pretty good right about now.

Looks like pretty much final Texas results:

Thanks for your updates. Listening to Rush the last few days, I was getting a bit depressed. Hang in there, Texas. We need you.

“More than 1.5 million people voted Tuesday in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate, won by incumbent Ted Cruz. That beats the previous record of 1.48 million in 2010, during former President Barack Obama’s first term.” — New York Post

The media has gone so far overboard that they are not capable of seeing and acknowledging reality. Truly, they are now in a completely alternate universe of their own creation.

This is what happens when children are indoctrinated and not taught critical thinking. A generation of perpetual children, who cannot accept the word “No”.

The snowflakes remind me so much of the little spoiled girl in the red dress in the original WIlly Wonka movie.
