Beto was campaigning for a local candidate in Texas yesterday

We are trying to flip control of the Texas legislature and need nine seats. Due to Beto's efforts, we flipped 12 seats in 2018. On Saturday, Beto was out campaigning for a Democrat running in a special election to replace a republican state house member who resigned.





If we can flip the Texas state house, we can prevent the Texas repubs from controlling redistricting. There is an election in November of this year to fill the seat for the remainder of the term. It is unlikely that there will be a special session and so this race may not mean much but it is great to see Beto out campaigning.

Beto is an amazing campaigner and I appreciate his efforts. BTW, Beto drops a couple of "hells" in this speech which makes me smile

Beto is a simply great campaigner and a good man. Thank you Beto

The Beto campaign gave $4.5 million to the Texas Democratic Party last year to help other candidates.
