I grew up in Clearfield County. Seventy percent voted for the losers.
A high crime area. Figures.

...not having their .RW racist, bigoted hate filled fear mongering caca, shite propaganda. So, with Gabe Vasquez' win -- we fucking kicked Harrell and Ronchetti's nalgas, butts big time! I think that just made us a solid blue! We said fuera! [ get out !] Y asta la vista culeros!.

Ronchetti's concession speech was laughable was preachy, he hoped no prayed that NM would go a kkristian path instead of blah blah blah.--sin [ my word but felt like I was in church]>blah blah blah. Think he was even crying fucking lloron! [ Note will correct name on edit.]

Sabes, [ you know] he seemed like a nice, decent guy; was weatherman on tv for years-- was funny seemed to get along with diverse panel of hosts..actually thought him to be a liberal, maybe independent Then he ran in 2020 or was it 2016.. thought he could come out the gate spewing mierda, shite like El Mal hombre y diablo aka ffg#45 and he actually though he could do it in NM! Aye, que pendejo! hahaha -- he fucking lost!

Then, this election round, he decided to run against popular Democratic Gov., Lujan - Grisham. Oh sure he toned down his hateful rhetoric like Harrell did as well -- they must have gone to same GOP seminar or prayer meeting on how to win in New Mexico--seminar given by say..Abutt?.Anyway New Mexicans weren' t having it..we said basta! [Fucking hell no..enough!] Sent them packing with a resounding FUERA, get out! Sabes, feels sooo fucking good!

Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez defeated Flores in Texas' 34th Congressional District.

A good flip for our House delegation

Also, here in Tarrant County we flipped a State House seat and bonus points the first Muslim elected to the TX Lege

30. CD 15, CD 34th's next door neighbor flipped to GOP.

34 was expected to be Democratic in November. The race that Mayra Flores won and Vicente Gonzalez lost was actually in a different district than the November race. (CD 34 was redistricted and the special election used the old district) The whole special election was an exercise in stupidity.

Now CD 15 has a Republican for the first time.

New Districts for November


Old Districts for Special Election


Note: Wilson and Guadalupe Counties are as red as they get
