re: For those worried about Paxton vs the fig in Texas

Which means Beto lost by over 6% and according to the Main Street media, TX would turn blue w/ his election. After all, he was supposed to be a formidable candidate who had raised a lot of money and Cruz was said to be unpopular. Despite all this, it wasn't really a contest. The media likes to play up the Democratic candidates in TX races and push the narrative that TX is turning blue so they to have a story to tell and to help w/ Democratic fund raising. Talarico is not as strong a candidate as Beto was. In addition, this is not Paxton's first rodeo. He's won a state-wide election before, more than has Talarico. Talarico has had some very extreme views that'll end up damaging him. Despite the narrative we'll constantly see about how Talarico is going to win, I agree w/ others that the race will be called 5 minutes after the polls are closed. I don't think it'll be close.
