I belonged to a Republican Women’s group at the time George P was running. Seemed to me like most of the membership supported George P, Cornyn, Pete Olson and the Chamber of Commerce.
Didn’t take me long to get out of there and we live in a solid Republican County and District, except for our local Mayor who is a Democrat. Seems like he has been in office for almost 50 years and will probably remain there until he dies. The Bush name is almost holy in parts of Texas, even though in our house it’s “anyone but a Bush”.
Mayors in TX can be Democrats but they run without party in the state. It is the same in AR, I believe, but not in LA.
