You blaming immigrants vs the clearly crap candidate?

Yes, your state is overrun with ‘immigrants’ and anchor babies of Illegal Immigrants and you are shocked at the result you are getting?

I think it’s less of that and a result of purple and blue voters moving here from other states for work. I travel around the Houston area a decent amount for work and I almost exclusively see Talarico signs around, with Hinojosa slightly trailing. Absolutely nothing for Republicans.

The state speaker of the house is a dem. Yes, they are close to flipping if people are not careful.

When you look at how many Illegal Immigrants, Muslims, and Indians are in Texas now why is this surprising?


MANY of them were reliable Republican voters until they failed your purity/skin color test.

Both candidates are trash that fire up absolutely no one from their base..


There are a lot of democrats that like Talarico. They view him in a very different manner than republicans do. Especially in Austin, there are more signs for him than I’ve ever seen for a senatorial candidate.


FWIW, I still think Abbott is gonna roll to a victory.

We’ve been overrun by pagan outsiders while we slept. That’s just the bottom line. In Texas of all places. God have mercy.

Imagine posting this considering what we know about Indians and their caste system and also the rampant racism and sexism that is in their culture
I don’t think I even have to tell you about those topics regarding Muslims but considering how clueless you sound I might have to explain that as well.

If those 2 win, the country loses, not just Texas.

EVERY election counts moving forward.

Put up or shut up.

Abbott isn't losing. Much less by four points. This actually leads me to believe a lot of the Talarico hype isn't as legitimate as we are being led to believe.


Agree.

I can believe polls showing Talarico within at least striking distance, at least early on before all the stuff of his past comments and beliefs is broadcast statewide every hour, because Paxton is a huge piece of shite and anyone honest with themselves knows it.

But Abbott trailing that Democrat lady who had zero statewide name recognition before the Gov’s race? No way.

And so that should invalidate the way this entire poll was conducted and the results.

In our area - North East (DFW) Collin County it's all Paxton signs and heavy republican.



AI - For decades, Collin County (located north of Dallas) voted reliably Republican in statewide and local elections, serving as a base for prominent conservative figures like Attorney General Ken Paxton.

One day (many years from now) AI will tell the story the white man.

“At the beginning of the 20th century, the white race had built civilizations that were the envy of the world. But because of guilt, they allowed people from all corners of the globe to come in and share in their prosperity. But the foreigners gradually took one piece and then another and then another. And any time portions of the white race stood up, they were charged with racism by people whose homelands were among the most intolerant on Earth. Eventually, the white race had little say in a world they largely built. Few whites held leadership positions in major cities and countries as they were outvoted by immigrants pursuing their own interests.”

After I’m gone, if the day ever comes - and I hope with every fiber of my being that it doesn’t - that the USA turns into Afghanistan, then I hope the Cosmos, God, Satan, Allah, whoever or whatever allows me a minute of consciousness to watch some blue-haired liberal feminist get forced into a burqa because that’s exactly whose fault all this shite’s going to be.

Sounds like the conservative stronghold Tennessee needs to start sending Volunteers to save Texas again

2022, Siena’s September Texas poll had Abbott leading Beto, 50-43, and their October poll had Abbott 52-43. He won, 55-44.


So they had him up 7 and he won by 11.

Change current polls to this margin of error and its a tie or abbot leading slightly

Your principles won’t allow you to vote for Paxton but they will allow you to vote for a fake, gay preacher who isn’t the slightest bit conservative. Sounds like to me, you’re the problem not Paxton. You seem emotional

The polls always lie. And anecdotally for the last leftard freak Beto I saw many more bumper stickers than I am seeing for Talafreako.

To vote for someone likeTalafreako you have to be a completely compromised person with zero moral compass.

The poll like the rest is shite and heavily lopsided towards liberals. Anyone who follows these polls are retards; we have known for years how they lean heavy liberal.

Ask yourself a question, do you know anyone that have been surveyed for one of these polls?

I'm willing to bet that no one has been surveyed and it's all made up bullshite. All you have to do is look at the dems approval rates. That tells the story.

As for Texas, the state government is still controlled by the Bush dynasty and oil barrons. They are worse than the dems.
