1. I don't know if I believe this will happen but I'll feel inspired

It probably won't happen, but it COULD happen. Just the thought that it could happen is inspiring to a Texas Democrat battered by so many previous defeats. I recently started to help with the phone banks and a Texas electoral loss would sink Thump's candidacy deeper than the Titanic.

3. If Hispanic voters are targeted in a GOTV, we might just have a chance.

2. Does anyone know if Hillary is running campaign commercials there?

Texas has a huge chunk of electoral votes that Hillary could pick up.

[Jane Austin]

6. She's running lots of commercials here in Austin.

Don't know what her statewide coverage is like.

5. this shows the GOTV efforts are crucial for this election cycle.

As as been said before many times, if people went to the polls democrats would win most of the time. There is just more of us.
