Don’t be surprised. Texas was purple not too long ago. People should not be complacent.

If Texas is voting for a total clown like Beto O’Rourke to the US Senate then it’s time to put a fork in this country. That’s not gonna happen.

Every year, more and more US-born Hispanics in Texas (and AZ and FL) become old enough to vote. Where lots of Hispanics vote, leftists win.

Additionally, the America-hating Left is fired up this year. A patriot beat their Presidential candidate. This fills them with rage - and motivation to vote.

When was texas purple

John Tower transformed the place from reconstruction and new deal Democrats to socially conservative GOP when the Dems embraces the Great Society

Closest to purple since then in a national import race is now

And it is because whites are becoming a minority

Despite Texas having the most conservative Latinos in my estimation in the nation

SOS....sons of Seguin
