Despite last-minute and anonymous robocalls charging her with “murdering her husband” and a well-funded anti-Trump Republican, the widow of the late Republican Rep. Ron Wright topped the crowded race Saturday to fill his seat in Texas’ 6th District.

With near-final returns in Sunday morning from the 23-candidate field, Susan Wright had about 24 per cent of the vote. With all candidates regardless of party on the same ballot, the second place was a near-tie (14 per cent each) between Republican State Rep. Jake Ellzey and Democrat Jana Lynne Sanchez.

These low blow smears usually end up back firing, probably the reason she is in the #1 spot in the runoffs

“Despite substantial contributions from Republican Reps. Anthony Gonzales of Ohio, Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, and Liz Cheney of Wyoming —all of whom voted for Trump’s impeachment—Wood drew only 3 per cent of the vote. “

****

Anyone or anything that runs contrary to these RINO pukes, I’ll vote for. Good for her.

Seems like conservatives learned something in the past 5 years of dems attacking Trump and RINOs stabbing him in the back. Add to that 300 political prisoners right now.

It’s best we get rid of the RINO NeverTrump Traitors now, or likely we never will, and they will see America fail if they remain.

I got one of the robocalls accusing Wright of murder for a $1 million insurance policy. Gave an address inArlington for the perp.

We eased the message but now wished that I had kept it.

Probably from the Dems.

Trump officially won this district in ‘20 by 3% (yes I know it was actually more) but in this special election the top five were: three R’s got 44% vs. the two D’s at 23%. I hope that is a trend for ‘22

Oh there was a Susan Wright in Texas who murdered her husband all right....about 10 years ago in Houston. Wonder if they looked any further before throwing Susan Wright and husband murdering together?........brother

“Probably from the Dems.”

Don’t bet on it. Republicans can play just as dirty as Democrats...although they only do it against other Republicans, never against their ‘friends across the aisle’.
