TX may be turning blue, but not this cycle.

Having said that, I know Dems are hoping to flip the legislator...sure hope they do

Trump may still be popular in some parts of the Texas Republican Party, but not the way Dubya was. I don’t remember voters being this active in years.

If Texas doesn’t flip this cycle, the Red-painted pachyderm is. Going to show a lot of scrape marks.

I'm going to wait until the 20th to cast my vote. Abbott extended early voting from the 13th through the 19th. The state repukes sued to have that extra week revoked. Even though a federal court denied their attempt to suspend voting for that extra week, I just don't trust his or their motives. I'm sure I'm not the only one waiting to make sure my vote will be among those counted. What can I say? I'm paranoid as hell.
