Who do you think will run against him?

I've heard that Danny Goeb was looking at it, but I don't see him giving up his bully pulpit as Lt, I think he has greater dreams than governor.

He may be the single reason Biden comes close to winning Texas.

Really has been a let down to me.

once again it is misleading. Texas isnt doing nearly the amount of testing they were doing last month at this time.

possibly skewed for testing sick patients and not just a large population

I wonder if he is going to handle that on a county by county basis


Like all democrats he paints with a broad brush.

Prolly wouldn't be very realistic.

In my younger years, I'd drive 2 counties over to hit a certain bar.

Audit the numbers and throw out the positives that are the same number, problem solved. It will be cut at least in half and probably more

How many healthy people are in line testing? How does this threshold even make sense?

Abbott lost my vote after his mask mandate. He is a pussy and I won’t vote for him and his anti business stance. He is a political coward.

Positivity rate is a dumb measure. What the frick?

I mean, positivity rate can be directly affected simply by who you choose to test.

In other words. If you test

1. Only those who show to doc.....HIGH rate

2. Only #1 plus direct contacts of #1...……….lower than #1

3. 1 & 2 Plus possible contacts...……..Basically, everyone in an organization for example. Lower than 1 & 2

4. 1, 2, 3 & everyone else who is remotely willing and available to test. MUCH lower number.

You literally could GUARANTEE bar opening just by choosing #4 or...…...you could guarantee shut down by sticking with 1 & 2

fricking idiocy.
