AUSTIN — The hotly contested special election for a North Texas Senate seat is headed to a runoff between Republicans Shelley Luther, a Dallas salon owner who made national headlines for defying COVID-19 orders, and state Rep. Drew Springer of Muenster.

Luther finished with a slight edge over Springer in the six-candidate race, and neither got the majority needed to win the seat outright. The pair, who were separated Tuesday by about 164 votes out of more than 68,000 cast, will face off on a later date to be set by Gov. Greg Abbott. The turnout was heavier than expected.

Pretty fricking American to run for office to replace the guy whose policies you disagreed with.

Business owner too, so she knows the effects of all those dog shite Democrat tax and spend policies. Imagine that.

A state senator, not a congressional senator.

Better than bartender AOC. At least she’s a small business owner.

Maybe this is what it takes. Just think if a Baw here on TD decided he was tired of the shite going on in BR and decided to run for mayor. He gets up there and admits, "I'm not a politician but I'm tired of the bullshite and I promise to fix everything I can and use common sense and not frick over my constituents." Would you vote for him over Broome?

AOC was a bartender and she is a member of Congress. At least this is just a state senator

That seems better than career politicians who only seem to know how to screw over their constituents for money and power.

Did you see the two presidential candidates last night ?

A reality TV Star (I like Trump) and a smirking grandpaw POS who wears depends and has a crack baby

You mean a business owner who understands the ramifications of terrible tax and regulation policy on small business? By all means, let's elect more fricking lawyers who pass legislation strictly so there will be more litigation.

You are exactly right, good for her. This is exactly how the system is supposed to work when a politician is corrupted with power they are voted out.

She is exactly the kind of person we want running for office. Business owner who is pissed and wants to get in and wreck the system that screwed her over.

Pretty similar to President Trump.

I doubt she or Trump needed the salary or power that comes with the office.
