20 years from now Texas will look like CA. Austin is the cancer inside the texan body. It will eventually kill the host.
That is BS. The city of Austin is separate from the capital. Austin has more Republicans now than they ever had and there is a historical reason why that county was so heavily Democrat until recent years.
The state of Texas was totally Democrat from their beginning of parties. Therefore, the families in Austin were Democrats as they had the offices and staffs all over the capital. Those family ties are still there in their sons and daughters and their sons and daughters and that is why Austin has always had a majority of Democrats.
Now there are Republican office holders and Republicans have been appointed to state agencies there but travel is fast now and many of them live in surrounding counties rather than Travis County. Sure, I know Republicans who live there, but yes, the majority are Democrats due to that long history of Texas being ruled by Democrats.
Many years ago I was with a Democrat family who was living in Austin and the matriarch of the family explained to me how the state developed with Democrats coming to Austin and she was part of that group. None of her generation are still living but her decedents still live there and that is the case with many others.
It will be worse. The liberals will use all the "law and order" regs against the idiot conservatives who enacted them.
