I think it won't be a walk for the GOP but I don't seen TX going blue yet. As
you say the demographics are changing and will ultimately impact statewide races.
The dem comtrol in well define areas and do have a lot support their.

Gov. race you had counties, Dallas, Jefferson, Harris, Bexar, Travis, El paso area,
and the border counties. The rest were red, although smaller in population.
Perry won by some 12.5%. The gender factor will change the dynamics of this year
a lot, imo.

That’s all well and good, I suppose.

I just know that the kind of person who promotes infanticide is someone that I think is beneath contempt. And there is no justification at all for the kind of procedures that she and her ilk sanction.

Ted Bundy’s Mom always contended that he was a “sweet boy”, too.

‘Windy’ is nothing more than trailer trash, born in Rhode Island (with traditional RAT values), and now being used by the DNC (with Kali and NYC funding) to exploit a mythical ascension to the top spot in Austin!!

This was the Gov. race. The SOS website shows Perry winning by one vote
in 2010. Other races show larger GOP wins. Romney won with 57% in 2012.

You had me worried for a moment. I thought it might be the little college in Alpine or the Hispanics.

yep. Population centers where the dependency class is the majority can swing a state. I think it’s going to be damn close

That’s a chilling prospect.
Not so much that Abortion Barbie would be governor but that would signal the guarantee of Democrats controlling national elections forever.

Kinky Friedman is running a bait and switch scampaign to lure young/slacker voters to the poll “as a referendum on legalizing marijuana”.

Kinky acknowledges deep within that article that as Ag Commissioner he won’t have the authority to actually legalize pot. But who ever said that Democrats were honest with voters?

This is a “populist” issue to drive new blood to the polls to elect Abortion Barbie (the femme Hollywood Red’s latest cause celeb) and to try to turn Texas “Purple/Blue”.

He needs to be exposed as the fraud he is.

Texas is the lynch pin for the south, Texas falls, rest will follow. Lots of money is going to come into the state.

I noticed that Brewster County is in the 23rd Congressional District which is represented by a Democrat. Is that because of a preponderance of poor Hispanics?
