That's how many votes Gene Kelly got for Senate.

Thankfully Rick Noriega received 86,137 votes.

1. A conservative estimate

I spent a good part of the day yesterday on the sidewalk in front of an elementary school polling place. I had never realized just how terrifying it could be to watch people try to park.
:scared:

2. OK...AT LEAST that many idiots...

6. Funny you should use the word conservative...

I imagine a fair number of people were guessing and went with the well known name. I also wonder how many were pukes who were just filling the bill.

3. Nearly 583,000 idiots statewide.

4. As Molly Ivins said

If you took the idiots out of the Texas Legislature, it wouldn't be a representative body

5. If that shitbag Kelly had forced another run-off, I was gonna look him up.

He lives in my semi-ancestral home. It's not that big; it wouldn't take me long to find him.

Of course, I'd just give him a stern talking-to.

:rofl: I'm sure many of us imagined MUCH worse after 2006...

9. Yes, but how many were crossover Rushbots

who were voting in the Democratic primary for the "weakest" candidate.

7. I still can't believe that horse's ass got more votes than Ray McMurrey

Did Kelly campaign? NO. Did he have a website? NO. Did he debate either Noriega or McMurrey? NO. And he STILL took more votes than McMurrey did.

I'm speechless. I thought everyone learned their lesson after the 2006 runoff.
