LOL like there was any doubt that Trump would win Texas
I just post 'em
I think Trump will probably win Texas, but I would not just take it as a given. Texas is not nearly as solidly Republican as it once was. Bush won Texas by over 20% in each election, and McCain and Romney each won by solid double-digit margins, but Trump only won by 9%. The Democrats won a lot of races around the state in 2018.
Texas is becoming increasingly urban and the cities, the suburbs are increasingly voting Democrat, and the Democrats are spending a lot of money here. Harris County used to be “purple” during Presidential elections and solidly Republican during mid-terms. Now, it is solidly blue during Presidential years, and the Democrats swept every countywide race not only in Harris County in 2018, but also in neighboring, formerly-reliably-Republican Fort Bend County. They also swept all of the court of appeals races here, which cover not just Harris County and Fort Bend County but several other, solidly-Republican counties as well. The red counties simply got outvoted by Democrats in Harris and Fort Bend Counties. This happened elsewhere in the state, too.
It’s actually going to take work to hold onto Texas.
