Is this a joke? Harris County is the most highly-populated black county in Texas. Half of New Orleans moved to Harris County after Katrina. Of course Harris County had a high Dem. turnout. That’s like saying Travis county is showing much higher Dem. turnout — I’ll bet there are only 7 Republicans in Travis to begin with. You hide and watch. They’ll tout Travis County next — forget Lubbock County in the north where 83% turnout has been Republican.

Pubbies and folks like me Independents are a minority in Austin and Travis County. It really seems so as the Dems have not a lock but pretty close over many many years.

The county north of us (Williamson) doesn’t seem to have that problem. Pretty staunch conservative and Pubbies county over the years.

Guess Austin’s bumper sticker is a town sticker: “Keep Austin Weird!” Many are. ‘-)

As for Travis County and Austin there have been some conservative that run under the Dem title and the Pubbie title. Although they are no where near a majority. There are some good ones, conservatives, around.

There are more Republicans in Travis County than you think, particularly in western, far northern and southern Travis County. Heck there are at least seven Freepers from Austin. But they are far outnumbered by Democrats.
