“Texas will endure, as we always have, because we are tough as nails and are still raising men like Chris Kyle.”

Get ready for the uninformed Freepers posting (1) liberals are moving in and will turn us liberal and those posting (2) illegals are coming in and will turn us Democrat.

Regarding (1): Liberals hate Texas and they aren't coming here. Had one in my house for two days and she was glad to be flying out of this state this morning. Also, someone will post about Austin being liberal and I have explained how that came about early in Texas history. It is one town historically Democrat.

Regarding (2): Illegals voting: Every Texas state office is run by a Republican and that includes the Secretary of State, elections division. I know after working in the state/local Republican Party in elections, that we have safeguards to prevent voting by illegals. It is a state law process of running elections and we Republicans stay on guard to prevent illegal voting of any kind. We do catch most of it.

Spanish people who are legal voters, are voting more for Republicans every year. The State Party has gone into more Spanish areas and opened Republican offices. If you have an office, they will come and I have seen that happen, have been part of opening an office and seeing voters come in that office to discuss elections and gather information.

We opened a Republican office in the county where we lived, there was NO Republican primary in that county and we administered the FIRST ONE. After about 5 general elections, the county turned into a majority of Republican voters. I kept watching the percentages change, less Democrat voting in their primary and our numbers moving up. I knew we would overtake them at that rate and we did.

At every general election, there is a small group of election law knowledgeable Republicans who are connected by a website and phone and anything happening that appears suspect on election day is reported by our workers by phone or to that website, and we deal with the problem right then and fix it. I was in that group one year and never left my chair and computer/phone except for food and bathroom until the polls closed that evening.

Texas is a special place for conservatives and we aim to keep it that way.
