At first, the huge turnout made me a bit nervous, but the map at the link looks like good news. All of the increased turnout is in Republican areas: the River Oaks—Memorial corridor, Spring—FM1960 in the northwest, and Kingwood. Most of the heavily Democrat areas are down.

And it doesn’t hurt that the crypto-Lesbian M.J. Hegar running against John Cornyn is running the most irritating adverts you can imagine.

There are not many things less attractive than a fat, middle-aged woman on a Harley.

Goes with what I saw on the Harris Votes website for voting locations and estimated wait times during the first week of voting. Where lines were very long was heavily outside the Beltway on the NW side between the Beltway and the Grand Parkway, Cypress, Spring, Tomball, Jersey Village.

I will correct myself a bit: there are some Democrat-leaning areas with big turnout, such as West U, Montrose, and the Heights. But while those areas are known for their hipster liberals, they are not nearly as heavily Democrat as many think. They are actually light blue to light red, if you look at the 2016 results.

The turnout is all is upper-income areas. In Houston, that is good for Republicans.

Thanks for the ping. Intriguing. The number of early voters in TX now exceeds the total election tally from 2016. You gotta wonder if this is significant. I know Trump has big GOTV efforts in the swing states. The question is if he’s at least matched the Dems’ GOTV efforts in TX. I hope so. Would be kind of lame to win the swing states and then lose TX. Essentially what he succeeded into doing to Hillary in 2016 - come at her from a completely unexpected direction.

Harris County (Houston) Texas may be exactly where they plan to steal the election.

MILLIONS of votes from a city with less than 50% whites or typical Texans.

The liberal talking heads were all over it last Saturday morning.

They are salivating over the possible headline that Kamala delivered Texas.

Eagles Up.

Dems have been overselling their chances of turning Texas blue. That is scaring the Republicans to turn out in droves. At least that would be my guess.

I was phone-banking for PA Dems yesterday and we have about 30% of Dems that I called going for Trump.

Yep, all the way down Memorial Drive . . and Woodway . . . and San Felipe . . . is Trump Country.
