Democrats winning makes no sense in a sane country. Suspicious.
Houston? Really?
It’s been blue for quite a while. Mayored by a Radical Lesbian.
Nothing new to see here.
Thank George W Bush for relocating the 9th Ward of New Orleans to Houston after Katrina
In before “Cruz’s fault”.
Even Governor Greg Abbott lost Houston (and San Antonio, Dallas, Austin, and El Paso). He won the state by 1,000,000 votes.
And 50% of Texans still do not vote.
“Energized democrats” my ass. This was a brown wave of freeloading, lawbreaking piglets from south of the border. Portraying it as anything else is fraud.
Not to mention that 1 out of 4 people living in Houston was born in a foriegn country.
there is scant local media for Republicans/conservatives in Harris County.
Even if you turn to talk radio (on AM), most of the shows have syndicated hosts (even if the programs originate in Houston) and there is little coverage or discussion of the corruption and scandal in (Democrat) city government or any local issues.
You think Dems are sane? Think deeply on that.

It was Democrat Bill White, mayor of Houston and former Clintonista, who invited the Katrina evacuees to stay in Houston and kicked out convention business daring the renters to take him to court.
Bill White also naysayed the rise in violent crime in Houston that was happening on his watch long before Katrina and even attacked his critics for blaming some of it on the evacuees. Mr. White then changed his tune and sought federal funds for our local police by blaming it on Katrina related crime.
Correct. Not a surprise in the least.
In 2018 Houston is nothing but Detroit with 101% relative humidity.
What really did this was straight ticket voting. This was the last time it was used. When voting, you could just pick - straight republican or straight dumocrat...
There have been past episodes of ballot shenanigans in Houston from the wards of Sheila Jackson Lee and Eddie Bernice Johnson. I’m guessing there were just more of it this time, partly from Beto supporters and partly from illegals.
Democrats spent 10s of millions of dollars in Texas this year. Why won’t Republicans do the same in California?
History tells us the winning party loses seats in mid term elections...it also tells us a lot of those seats will be won back!!!
““Energized democrats” my ass. This was a brown wave of freeloading, lawbreaking piglets from south of the border. “
And don’t forget the trash that moved to Houston from NOLA after the hurricane and decided not to go home.
“Just look for the donkey”
Straight ticket voting is very bad thing.
Yes Texas vote Apathy is what is going let a blue sneak in statewide someday... always among the lowest percentage turnout atates
