The Irishman pretending to be hispanic lost to the Canadian hispanic. Very good.
Keep counting! Beto wins!
Robert = “Beto” to appeal to Hispanics. Rafael = “Ted” to appeal to gringos.
51% to 48%. Three percent
In Texas with a very conservative incumbent versus and gun grabbing open borders dui/hit and run lib.
Once Texas goes blue....
[ Texas Senate Election Results: Beto O’Rourke vs. Ted Cruz ]
Huh. The liberals at the New York Times listed Beto O’Fake first.
Imagine that.
Ted Cruz is an idiot
He should have won this with 10-15 point cushion, easy
Beto was a nobody who wanted to gun control and a whole ton of crap that Texans wound’t go for
What happened?
Trump supporters did not come out as they would have if Ted wasn’t a giant idiot with a ego to match
If Ted wasn’t an idiot, we wouldn’t have had to spend a boat load of cash to save his seat. Think about other elections we could have won with that waste of money.
Ted doesn’t care about republicans, republican voters, or his constituents and he proved that in 2016. His numerous cry baby stunts made him look like a total buffoon in the end.
Valdez was poorly funded and ran no TV ads, while O'Rourke plastered TV with ads, as well as yard signs and a big social media presence. The power of a $70 million budget is evident. While he lost, the Democrats flipped two U.S. House seats and a significant number of seats in the State Legislature. From their standpoint, the money was well spent.
Bob would not have gotten anywhere near off the ground had it not been for 3 billionaires:
George Soros, Tom Steyer and his own father-in-law.
In the MOST expensive Senate race in history, Bob still lost.
Conspiracy theory warning!
Does anybody else think that the Rats might be placing Libertarian candidates in races just to split the GOP vote?
The GOP should invest some money in running Green Party candidates that would split the Rat vote.
Way too close for my likin’ after escaping the blue state of blue states with its little blue flag with the joke on it
The fake Hispanic gets his name in the headlines again. Name recognition for 2020.

None. There is no difference.
This is TERRIFYING. THAT close to disaster!
and this is with Ted not being popular, and Beto and the Dem’s cheating.
If you doubt the Dems cheated, https://www.star-telegram.com/news/politics-government/election/article220540115.html
this is the tip of the iceberg.
No surprise nobody has heard about it.
Believe me, most conservative Texas voters (which thankfully were the majority) cast their ballots against Beto and less for Cruz.....who is smart, a good senator, great debater etc. but not a likable candidate. Unfortunately, “likeability” has become a much more significant electoral factor than it should be.
So, if the Libertarian (spoiler as usual) wasn’t running, Cruz would have beat Beto by 300,000 Votes. Got it.
If it hadn’t been for DJT helping him out, Cruz would have had his @ss kicked. I hope he appreciates this.
