Texas elected a left wing lunatic who hates oil and gas as Land Commissioner last night.
The State of Texas committed financial suicide last night and its going to really suck for them over the next 4-6 years.

I keep seeing posts like this from Texans. I don't get it...the warning signs have been there for month. All of them met with "this is Texas', "no way that freak gets elected", etc. etc. Unfortunately, it's all too little, too late. We have to have better candidates and better messaging or the Republican party is going to continue to lose.

Check out the demographic shift in Texas. Seems a lot of you are completely unaware that you've been pushed to the voting minority by mass legal immigration.
I can’t tell you how many times I was ridiculed by this board when I would say TX is in the brink of turning purple.

The denial in this thread is laughable. Trump was a complete fricking ruhtard starting this boondoggle in Iran, it has created a situation that is dire, has the potential to collapse our systems and drive rampant inflation. That alone was enough to cause major problems for the GOP everywhere, but this happening in a time where huge numbers of ordinary people are struggling mightily, it adds up to a mess of broken promises.

This just comes down to raw numbers and demographics. The amount of Californians and people from other blue states that have flooded into that state over the last 6 years will likely change that state forever.

This election was about affordability/ tariffs and gas prices. Sane people who took Econ 101 know that tariffs as a political tool only hurt your own country.
Punting the incumbents while rejecting all the bond and spending proposals is all you need to know.

Republican complacency and corruption.
When everyone at the top is a yes-man for everyone else, folks start to notice. Paxton was openly corrupt. Abbot was openly disconnected. I'm not a Texan but the problems in the republican government in Texas was pretty open and obvious.
Democrats may not be any better. However, both parties are better when checks and balances are in play.

Texas will be California in five years.

This is all about the wallet and the inability of Republicans to do anything.
I'm starting to think this is a big part of it. Especially with younger voters trying to make it, and for some of those ex Dems that had switched to GOP. I think there could've been a lot of ex-Dems that had switched to GOP the last few cycles and voted Dem.
After seeing all the ISD and road/bridge funding get voted down, I think a lot of the issue is the cost of life.

Looks like it already is.

Talarico boosted Hinojosa's vote total. Republicans did not come out to vote. Texas is still red. Paxton was a terrible candidate. The 2031 election will tell us if this is an outlier year for Texas. The governor and senate seat (Cruz) will be on the ballot. Ann Richards was a one term governor.

Didn’t Louisiana just have a dem governor?
You morons thinking Texas is blue just two years after going +15 Trump need a reality check.
Texas ran a complete shite show slate of candidates. Paxton is awful and Abbott turn his back on Texas for years.
But muh socialists you voted for. Most people aren’t so fricked in the brain with this stupid talking point so they won’t vote based on it.
This board is no different than the Reddit echo chambers after trumps elections.
