We conservative Texans prefer the Gov. not be a lieberal female dog from Rhodent Island.
If 8-10 points is close, than you’re right. ‘cause that will be the win margin!
Yes, ‘Windy’ IS a Rhode Island carpetbagger!
Sad as this may be...but look for George P. to follow uncle George W.’s path to a more prominent political presence, first in Texas then on to DC.
BTW...are you a cheesehead, or do you just like to eat cheese and ‘stink up’ another’s parade!?!
The GOP should be moving in a sales team to speak to Hispanic groups in those areas to reinforce this new awareness of the gap between the democrats and Hispanics, now is the time to go on a mass communication effort in those areas.
He rode the name in for sure, but he won. Yes, your probably right, he’ll hold this office and then work toward something else.
I stink it up as much as I can. I don’t underestimate the lows nor the evil of democrats. If it causes people to work a little harder so they can say I told you so, then I’ll catch that arrow, doesn’t bother me in the least.
I found several counties in south Texas that had 0 republican votes.
*********
Did you bother to look and see how many counties that had zero votes for the
democrat gov. candidate? There are more non votes democrat than gop.

An oxymoron.
why no I didn’t....glad to hear it however, gives me a little more hope.
Also noticed that their turnout percentage was pretty $h!tty too. Hope that holds
But 21 counties recorded zero Democrat votes.
That's not to say that there are no Republican voters or Democrat voters in these counties. Instead, it means that there is no party machinery in these counties -- nobody to conduct the primary elections, staff the precincts, etc.
There were votes for the other party in the zero vote counties of one party
or at least in the ones I checked.
In all of them, in fact. Some counties held Democrat primaries only, some counties held Republican primaries only.
They are still trying to get the Statutes corrected to rectify the problem. The
primaries are under the control of the each Party and several counties have
no Party Chairman. Here is a link to an article about the problem.
Rural counties still struggling to hold Democratic primaries
snip
Of the 22 Texas counties without a Democratic Party chairman, nine are in the
Panhandle/South Plains region, according to the state party. Despite the new law,
in most of those counties, people wanting to vote in the Democratic primary cant cast
a ballot, unless they vote in the GOP primary.
*****
On the Republican side, only four counties in the state dont have a party chairman and
of those only sparsely populated Irion County, in the San Angelo area, is in West Texas.
end snips
Greg Abbott.....8 votes
Lisa Fritsch....0
Mirian Martinez.1
SECEDE Kilgore..1
Wendy Davis.....6 votes
