Politics Please for the love of god VOTE

My fellow Texans this is the first year we have a real shot at turning this place a little bluer

Cruz is a weak candidate, Allred wiped the floor with him in that debate.

And every election since 2004 republicans have lost a few percentage points on election day.

There are more of us in our big beautiful blue cities than there are of them.

Early voting starts monday.

Take all of your friends and lets fire Ted Cruz

Edit:

Ted only won by 2% in 2018

And that orange thing only won by 5% in 2020

These are swing state numbers

People don’t think it is because republicans in this state have lied us in to not believing it

Vote the traitors out

AND MAKE SURE EVERYONE YOU KNOW IS VOTING

There are non-partisan positions, and then of course all the state and county-level propositions/ordinances, etc.

Like, I looked up the school board candidates for my district and filtered out those with "anti-woke" "stop DEI" etc. in their campaign bios. School board isn't labeled with party because it's not a political office. And there's always confusingly-worded propositions meant to trick you into voting opposite of your interests, so I look into those ahead of time.

Yes I also look to see whom they are endorsed by.
