Ken Paxton will beat whoever the Democrats put up there. It’s time to de-RINO-ify Texas.

“after he narrowly lost to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz…”

53%-44% is a real squeaker.

Allred's run comes after he narrowly lost to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in the November 2024 election.WTF????

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz defeats Democrat Colin Allred

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz easily defeated U.S. Rep. Colin Allred on Tuesday, defying another spirited and well-funded effort to turn Texas blue and preserving his status as a leading conservative voice in American politics.

"The results tonight, this decisive victory, should shake the Democrat establishment to its core," he said in a speech to supporters at his campaign watch party in downtown Houston.

The Associated Press called his victory after 10 p.m. as Cruz was leading by more than double digits.

later in the article:

“Cruz performed significantly better against Allred in 2024 than he did against O’Rourke six years prior, notably showing a much stronger performance in largely Hispanic counties along the border.”

He is a doofus and just as bad as Beta male O’Rourke.

I was thinking that, too.

Cruz won by a near landslide.

That qualifies as a landslide today.

Hopefully, but we will again have to vote for Cornyn if he is the nominee. Allred is ALL RED.

I’ve been seeing about Traumatic Brain Injury in NFL players. Colon All Red needs to be examined to see if he has the mental capacity to serve if elected.

Why do these losers keep coming back for another bite of the same apple. He is no better than O’Rourke.

And I promise to fix the system...sometime around my 15th term, once i’ve accumulated enough dough.

>> Allred’s run comes after he narrowly lost to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in the November 2024 election.

“Narrowly lost”? Bullshit.

“Early polling showed Cruz as a clear favorite, but polls closer to the election showed a closer race. Cruz ultimately outperformed polling and expectations and won re-election by 8.49 points, improving on his 2018 margin by six points and flipping thirteen counties. Cruz won a majority of Hispanic and Latino voters in the election.”

So.... Nine points is a "narrow loss"?

Democrats never fight for the people they present themselves as being for.

They fight for their own special interest groups that ensure them a permanent cush job that they never have to actually work at but can provide them with all kinds of kickbacks to fill their own personal bank accounts with.
