Blue Wave petering out!

Yssup said in another thread that more and more Texas districts are turning blue. But a Republican just won a special election in district 19. A district that Hilllary won handily and was held by a Democrat for decades.

That gerrymandered Senate district is not fair indicator of Texas voters. And the special was held to fill a seat left open by a douchebag who got sentenced to jail.

I think you’re cackling in your spare time again, pal.

HAHAHAHAHAHhahahahshshahs
I think its about 70% minority

mainly Hispanic but combined with blacks just about 70%
Ted Cruz is going to win in Texas. Yussup is from another country called "Austin",the rest of Texas is normal,they won't elect a dem.

Ellen, you live in Austin.

Do you talk with people on the street? Don’t you just feel the love for Trump and Cruz everywhere?

Problem with Democrats in Texas is that they don’t vote. I think that will change in November. I don’t like the polls but wouldn’t be surprised if KKKruz pulled it out.

Of course, that all might change when Twitler brings his baggy hypocritical ass down to campaign for the man whom he called “Lyin’ Ted” and pushed the conspiracy theory of his Dad being part of the JFK Assassination.

HHAHAHHhhah!

I've lived in this state for 26 years and I've never seen the positive groundswell for a Democratic candidate as there currently is for O'Rourke.

The last elected Democratic Senator in Texas was Lloyd Bentson way back in 1992. Usually the Democrat nominee for either Senator or Governor in this state is poorly financed but O'Rourke actually has raised more money than Cruz.

The reason this happened is because the texas governor held a special election in September rather than include it on the November ballot. It probably cost taxpayers an extra few million dollars just so that they could inhibit voter turnout.



The Republican party in Texas is about as dirty as you can get.
