I did vote against Lamar Smith in a primary runoff, but his opponent didn’t stand a chance. I like Smith, but he isn’t tough enough IMO. He is my Rep, so I get to vote every 2 years.
Just remember Lamar Smith’s district runs between San Antonio and Austin, both are heavily Democrat, but he remains a Republican because of all the voters between these two cities. It was pointed out to me by my brother that the cities all are controlled by Democrats. That holds true for TX too. Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, etc are all controlled by the LEFT.
