“Anti Trumper GOP Michael Wood is pulling about 3% of the votes.”
**************************************************
Yes, he’s an Adam Kinzinger mini-me (and endorsed by Kinsinger). He’s going nowhere but may serve to pull enough votes from Jana Sanchez (the leading DemocRAT in the race) so that the top two vote getters will be Republicans and the ones advancing to the runoff. Thank you, Kinzinger, you major league dumbass.

But only 71% of the vote is in so it’s still too early to call.

Club for Growth spent $160,000 on a television ad and mail campaign opposing Ellzey’s campaign. The ad focused on a $250 donation Ellzey received from Bill Kristol.[18]

Most of Tarrant County’s vote is in.

Henry Olsen has already called a R vs R general.

There are people out here at Ft. Hood I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire. Mainly officers,the enlisted not so bad. Ponder the sort consequences that can lead to.

I don’t know how much is in but the Widow is first, her main foe, State Rep. Jake Ellzey who is apparently a RINO, is in 2nd, with a rat close behind him.

Most recent results reported (77% of precincts): Susan Wright gop 7,110 15.7%

The numbers I saw showed her with 9466 votes (17.2%) with only 74% of the vote in. Rankings the same as yours for the top 4, but Ellsey at 15.2, Sanchez at 13.8, and Harrison at 11.9

“Looks like the Dem is pulling ahead of Ellzy…”
**********************************************
That’s actually better. Now that the RINO hope (Ellzey) is out, the National Republicans will have to support Wright, the Trump endorsed candidate.

Your numbers are WAY off. Don’t use the NYslimes.

Ellis is all in. Tarrant is almost all in. Navarro has nothing in. Navarro alone will make this an R v R.

Yes. The NBC results were supposed to be 99% but the raw vote numbers were thousands less than Politico.
Looking better now.

GOP combined vote 61-39. This was a Trump +6 in November.

I agree avoiding the RINO would have been a sure thing but NBC was an inaccurate reporter of results. It will be R vs R.

“Looking better now.”
**************************
Except I was hoping Ellzey wouldn’t make the runoff. Best I can tell, he’s clearly a RINO favorite.
