Well, at least Houston finally turned blue on the map tonight...

It was kind of irritating to see it still pink, while all the other big cities got their blue on.

1. That's a very interesting map!

Notice how the Valley (on the border with Mexico) is mostly blue, save for a couple of reds in there, and it looks like it's spreading. Maybe that's the real reason why Repubs want to shut down the borders ;)

Also, I always figured Beaumont (Jefferson County) to be pretty much red forever as they're another oil town like Houston, but I see they've gone pink so far.
Here's to the continued blue-ing of Texas! :toast:

2. Dallas County is still solid blue

Just wrote this for Daily Kos: Dallas County: A Blue Pixel in Texas. Catch it quick before it slides off the diary list into oblivion.
