I am proud to live in Harris county, which is blue. But unfortunately, as you know, Texas as a whole is still ruby red and has been since the 1990s. This past legislative session witnessed some extreme new developments and I am very concerned about the next couple years, regardless of who becomes Speaker. It is heartbreaking to see how far to the right our State as a whole has moved. We shall see.
PS Thanks for the post.
