“The Texas legislature will be a HUGELY more conservative body next session as a result. “
I should hope so.
2011 session was a big disappointment given the large GOP majority that was gained. Straus is to be faulted, but I dont think he’ll be knocked off even with some of his pals gone.
Strauss certainly won’t be knocked off if WE don’t, en mass, let our reps know that voting for him as speaker will be frowned upon in a BIG way.
