Texas State Senator Wendy Davis was steamrolled in her bid to become the state's next governor, and it appears that her staff believes Ebola has something to do with the failure of her campaign.
Speaking on behalf of Davis' campaign, Communications Director Zac Petkanas told the Wall Street Journal, "The losses that you are seeing in very blue states are simply amplified in states like Texas where there is already a structural advantage for Republicans," he said. The Journal added that, "Another challenge, [Petkanas] said, was that Texas was at the center of two issues — immigration and the Ebola scare — that helped drive Republican voters to the polls."
Many Americans do remain concerned about Ebola entering the country from heavily-afflicted nations in West Africa. However, most analysts attribute Davis' loss to a poorly-run campaign and inability to connect with Texas voters....

“. . . yeah, yeah, that’s the ticket!”
I thought it was redistricting.
it was that darned old Capitalist Ebola...
Don’t forget Climate Change.
Not dildos and an unusual hatred of the handicapped?
Or the Koch Brothers
I wouldn’t blame it on Ebola, I’d blame it on the Bosa Nova.
Wendy Davis has Ebola?!?! I could only wish all baby killers contracted Ebola. Perhaps then they would recognize the value of life...
It was all those aborted democrats that didn’t make to the polls.
Well I think Ebola did have something do to with that. People watched how Obama and the Democrats sacrificed common sense (Stopping people who had been exposed to ebola from coming) for an attempted political gain...demonizing those who thought that was a pretty good idea as racist, uncaring and unfeeling idiots.
Maybe it was an obscure weather posting saying wendy, blowing hard, with a small misspelling there.
I thought it was redistricting.
This is not quite as rich as blaming redistricting, but it comes close.
That being said, I think the Ebola crisis was the straw that broke the camel’s back for the Democrat Party. After the border crisis and the rise of ISIS beheading Americans, Americans finally said “Enough is enough!”
I love reading this kind of delusional nonsense. Makes me feel very positive about 2016.
I thought she lost due to redistricting.
Run Wendy, run! Become the face of the democrat party! But next time, use more Hollywood celebrity money!
She’s correct.
If Jim Abbott had died of Ebola and the Republicans didn’t
name his replacement she would have won.
It’s Ebola’s fault.
