I lived in Plano 35 years and it was ultra conservative back then.
You are right!!! I’m from a blue state, am Christian conservative. I worry about this bc this is what liberal progressives do - contaminate red states - and residents of the red states don’t realize it until it’s too late. They run for school boards, commissions, local offices....any place they can infiltrate. If Texans don’t pay attention, you will wake up one morning and be living under their thumb.
They’ll leave after they destroy the area. Liberal locusts always do.
Where I live in Frisco, a lot of folks from India live here.
Problem also is....nobody voted.
One question: Were they using voting “machines”?
From what I’ve seen (this area is my home, btw) is that these “conservative” candidates are more like fringe far right candidates. One particular one that was running in Allen had the support from the conservatives but couldn’t be honest and mishandled campaign funds. That’s a problem and likely the reason she lost. The guy that won IS a conservative ... voting records prove it ... but the team behind the losing candidate was talking bad about him from day one. That kind of crap loses votes.
Still mostly red congressional districts. I’m not privy to all the races to know what specifically was lost
Californication
Heh-heh! The slave empire expands.
It also happens because R county officials say school board races are nonpartisan. They do not get involved or provide the slightest bit of information on the candidates.
At least that is how it is locally here.
Possibly or......it’s about the demographics of the voters interested in the election, i.e., the parents of kids who attend the public schools. I’d wager that a very large number of conservatives eligible to vote in the school board elections do NOT send their kids to the public schools. They probably could care less what’s going on in the public schools. Their kids go to private schools, church schools or are home schooled. Hence.....the low turnout.
What a joke.
Anyone who is just NOW noticing that places such as Collin County is moving to the left along with lots of the rest of suburban Texas counties (such as Fort Bend, Williamson, Hays, Denton, etc.) has obviously not been paying attention.
The "shift" has been obvious for merely the past DECADE or two. Once upon a time Collin was rock-solid Republican, now -- and it's not just the deteriorating area around Plano -- the county is to the LEFT of the state as a whole; the state of Texas has been moving leftward, but Collin is moving leftward even faster due to the invading forces from the Turd World.
Collin was 75% White as recently as the 2000 census; now it is only 50% White and dropping rapidly. These same people are going to act shocked when Collin, which hasn't voted Democrat for President since LBJ, finally flips to the dark side in 2024, or 2028 at the latest.
