I’ve also looked at your location. Do you live in the metro area, or further out?
I live in the DFW Metroplex, but not in Dallas proper. I’m in one of the (many) suburbs just north of Dallas, though I can be across the Dallas city limit in about 90 seconds if I need to be.
I would also point out that our Dems and lefties (with the exception of the race baiters) differ from the average Dem/lefty elsewhere in some significant ways. They are definitely a different breed than the type found in California, Washington, Oregon, New York, etc. For one, no few of them will utterly reject anything resembling a gun control proposal. They’re odd ducks - which explains why they don’t have a lot of power with the rest of the Dems.
