This white Texas woman didn’t vote for her because she was unqualified to be our governor and she is a flippin’ lunatic.

/src on/Unfortunately you and other white Texas women suffer from false consciousness. You failed to realize the oppressive structures that keep you and all women in oppression and how Abbott is just a continuation of the oppression. Hispanic and African-American women suffering from racism, sexism, and class understand the true nature of oppressive societal relations and voted for the candidate most likely to free them, Davis. The white male power structure tricks you with non-issues like abortion, guns, religion, and family. You need to feel empathy with your darker skin sisters and join them in the revolution./src off/

exactly. That is why it bothers me when FReepers blame third parties for losses, as if it should be illegal to vote for a small party

No one should pay any attention to anything written in Solon. The people there are un-American wierdos.

Jewish women and abortion

Shiksa childbearing may he what keeps Jewish bloodlines going here in mixed marriages...pity

No one single demographic supports abortion more

Given the Holocaust.... I fail to grasp why embrace such self destruction and further the Nazi goals more or less

“her campaign meant a lot to me, and to so many other Texas women — thousands of whom stood in line for hours”

Davis ticked off many people who are not able to stand at all.

“Single women are simply voting for a surrogate husband in the gov’t.”

Only if they vote for dems

Well, yeah, that was the assumptive understanding.

Single women who vote for democrats are voting for a surrogate husband in the form of a gov’t that provides for and protects them.

What about the thousands of men who stood in line for hours to cast their ballots in support for Abbott. Are they unimportant simply because they are men?

Yes.

Men are worthless. White men in particular ... they should all be stuffed in gas chambers.

(It's what they're thinking ...)

Not illegal. But it is a childish waste of a vote in a close race (which almost all of them are these days). We do have a duty to our fellow citizens.

When your analysis of an electoral loss comes down to two explanations; we ran into the wrong candidate on the wrong platform and we did it poorly, or the electorate made a mistake and you go with the second explanation, you have made a serious error.

by the way this is the same writer who announced online she was having an abortion and then proceeded to document and write about it and used all that information to slam Texas increased abortion laws she is a real nut job good Lord

her only redemption is I think she was one of those women who showed their breasts on social media in support of the Israeli Defense Forces
