Pretty much this, but people outside of Texas just can't fathom it.

So you will be voting for Talarico? I would love to hear your justification for that vote!! This should be real enlightening and stick to the issues both candidates support not your feelings

I saw that Jeff Flake, former Arizona Republican Senator (and TDS sufferer) has endorsed Talarico.


In a logical world, this should seal the win for Paxton.

Paxton's going to win but I think it'll be uncomfortably close because of all the ick on Paxton.


The Republican Establishment HATES Paxton. It was the scumbag Bush family that led the fight to impeach him.

Paxton isn't exactly Mister Rogers in his personal life, but neither are most of the othets. If the corrupt Bush family hates him, then that's the guy I want.

Besides, even Charles Manson wasn't as crazy and weird as Talafreako. My best guess is that this poll is an outlier, but we shall see. Paxton should hire the guys who created Spencer Pratt's political ads. They would have a field day with Talafreako.

Paxton is a well documented shitty human being with a metric frick ton of baggage.

And on the other side the "fruit" is telling everyone to love one another as Jesus told us to do.

Somehow, I have little doubt who the good "Christian" people of Texas line up behind.

That and all the extortion, violation of whistle blower laws, offering a pedophile a 1 day plea deal and being a general piece of shite human.

I think Talarico is a threat - or really any massive money Senate race is a threat these days - but I'll need to see more before I'm super concerned.

I think Texans will hold their nose and vote for Paxton and win with a bigger margin than Cruz did against Beto in 18. Probably closer than Cruz-Allred, but 52-48 isn.

Talarico is strange. Like, worse than Walz in creep factor strange.

There are lots of people who absolutely cannot stand Paxton. I am surprised it's that tight though.


He’s a horrible POS. I’m in his district and have never heard anything positive from people that know him

His own office tried to impeach him, he’s a felon, and cheated on his wife. He just looks like a slime ball.

I think Paxton wins by about 4 cause we have lots of dumbasses here, if people weren't so stupid he'd win by infinity cause Talrico sucks.

Rural Texans in opposition to data centers being built in their area will vote for Talarico. I don't know how much that moves the needle but those are usually very strong republican strongholds.

Good question. But “feelings” is also often used to justify voting for bad representation.

My primary concern is who will look out for all Texans, their constituents. Not just their personal friends.

Not interested in voting for corrupt individuals.

I will have to do a deep dive into policy questions.

Saw on Drudge a story that Paxton is on vacation and took his mistress with him to Iceland. The wording of the story was intended to cast Paxton in a negative context. Who cares that Paxton is on vacation. Media sucks.

I am Republican in San Antonio and in the minority.

My wife is a brainwashed Democrat who has never voted anything but Democrat as she is from California.

I asked her which of the 6 genders Talerico describes is her and she doesnt really know. She just does what her liberal older sister tells her too.

We can not talk politics at all.

I am a little worried that those freaks and blind democrats could actually destroy this state with that freak.

I am convinced she would vote for satan before she would vote republican.

And thanks to all the freaks with money moving from California to Texas and Florida they could turn it with their money.

Dont ever doubt the DEMOCRATS ARE CONTROLLED BY THE SOCIALIST AND CHINA NOW BY INFULTRATION.

I have so many questions

Eta: never mind. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to most of them.
