All we need is Texas.

If Texas goes Blue, the rest of our problems will get taken care of.

1. In 2022?

It's being gerrymandered to death. Sheila Jackson Lee and Al Greene have been gerrymandered into the same district, that's -1 seat without voting.

8. Your comment is out of date.

The final map has them drawn into separate districts.

2. TX & FL Are Fools Errands

After seeing 2020 results, I would not spend money in either state for 2024. Better spent elsewhere at this point.

4. Texas will turn blue

There are a ton of good Democrats working hard. Demographic trends indicate that Texas may be purple in the 2022 cycle and will be looking good in 2024. That is why the Texas Repugs are so busy suppressing the vote and gerrymandering themselves into safe seats

5. Thing about Gerrymandering....

eventually, you isolate yourself from political reality. And the trends do not favor WASPs in Texas.

6. Not. Gonna. Happen.

7. As a Texan

Its just not gonna happen. The Texas GQP will never ever let Texas fall into the democratic category. Without Texas they don't have a fighting chance in presidential elections anymore. They will never allow it. Sorry but we need to stop believing Texas will be California. Plus too many Latino men are buying into the conservative ideology.

9. And if frogs had wings, they wouldn't bump their tail every time they jumped.

Some day Texas may go blue but that day is a few election cycles away (if democracy survives that long).

11. Good thought from you. All Texas needs is Ann RICHARDS.

* What BEGALA said: "Texas isn't a Red state, it's a non-voting state."

* African Americans vote, but Hispanics don't, and the Hispanics who do are fragmented with a Wingnut component.

* Young Libs of the Austin variety are KEWL in their own minds, faddish, wannabe the latest thang cusp (in their own minds) - scuttling unity.

12. That may change, though.

Those "young libs" like sexual freedom and a functioning electrical grid. Sorry, Texas, no federal support for you, cuz...you're independent!

13. "Recreational" (liberarian) types aren't reliable.

14. LOL, they will be and I predict the problem is going to be a complete fiasco for 18YO females in .

the Republican Orbit. Social dystopia, here we go....in Texas. Lets see how it goes.
