Remains to be seen. It’s not really a war. No nukes for Iran is major W. Regime change could also be a W.

If Texans send Ken fvcking Paxton to the Senate, that state is even dumber and morally bankrupt than Oklahoma.

Talarico could cut his own dick off and he'd still be the better choice. Paxton might be the most corrupt POS to ever run for a federal office.

Because your comment gives off the strong vibe of a RINO/3XB gay boy, perhaps?

You can get Paxton to win at nearly 2.75x your money on Kalshi right now. Huge opportunity if you're really that confident.

Put your money down, share the slip!


For reference: Abbott is still a heavy favorite (76%). Just goes to show how truly awful a candidate Paxton is.

What is with the qualifier about early voting turnout pending?

There’s gonna be a large early voting turnout in this election.

It seems to be a fallback for these low-level intellect, knuckle dragging poliTards. Anytime they even think that you're disagreeing with them, they fall back on name-calling and insults




And yes, I'm sure a lot will rush here to say that I'm insulting and I'm calling names.

GUILTY

but only after months of trying to have a rational, reasonable discourse about politics, and they decided just to call me a democrat because I was pointing out that paxton was such a poor candidate

And now there are 12 threads a day on this board about the Texas Senate race

And still after all that time, the best thing they can do to push back is name-calling

And just as a parting shot one of you please point out a prediction I made that was wrong I predicted that Trump was going to win months before the election and my RELAX thread
I told you exactly what was going to happen and the walkout in the Texas Legislature

youd think If these were people actually interested in politics as opposed to the wrestling themed political discourse these tards engage in

they would recognize that have been right 2 out of 2 times so far may want to listen to me the 3rd

gay boy by 5
the cripple by 1.5, but Ginas hot politically... if the Dem Gov fund gets in

its scarey

Paxton is so awful his estranged wife just starting running ads to help save things…. “Even though they’re terrible humans (including my corrupt cheating husband), please vote for our team over someone with human decency and character.”

Is this supposed to be a reliable and unbiased poll? I don't think I have ever heard of it.

There's a lot of feelings that need to be validated. The insecurity threads are going to be constant for the next month.....

Those ads are meant to boost Republican base voters in districts where Republicans are about to lose legislative seats

They're not going to change the Senate state race at all, but it's a way of her, the aggrieved wife of paxton asking Republicans,the target is mostly women
to vote Republican because Republicans are about to lose eight to 12 legislative seats across Texas

Totally different math

A presidential v one Senate seat

The Democrats put money into Harris not so much for Harris, but because they had to support the ticket across the country and putting money into the Harris campaign was the most efficient way to do that It didn't work because that money was wasted because there was no oversight but that's why as as much money was spent as as much money was spent

The greatest sin is to be right about predicting something unpopular to the majority. It's not even redeeming if you're correct about predicting an outcome that is popular with the majority.

It's amazing to watch the herd mentality work...either on the right or the left. Objectivity is considered dangerous to the herd's safety.

That's why the abandonment of civil discourse for mindless insults. You can't reason with tribalism.

who is Red Eagle and why would we care what they called?

Do you have evidence they have called elections correctly in the past?

The biggest disconnect I see is people trying to extrapolate the GOP primary to the general election.

Because it ignores the DEM primary….
