More Democratic voters than Republicans have cast ballots ahead of next month’s primary elections in Texas, in what some party officials interpret as a new sign that a blue wave is building ahead of the midterm elections.
The Texas Secretary of State’s office said 168,000 voters had cast ballots in the Democratic primary in person or by mail in the state’s ten largest counties through the end of Sunday. By contrast, 138,000 voters had cast ballots in the Republican primary.
It is the first time in a decade that Texas Democrats have turned in more ballots than Republicans at this point in the early voting window. And it’s the first time in 12 years that Democrats outpaced Republicans in a midterm election year.
Maybe they can’t afford to stay in California or maybe they don’t like living where you need poop maps.
So liberals who voted for higher taxes in CA, really don’t like high taxes so they move to Texas?
Wouldn’t surprise me, in the least.
Now, they’ll try to turn TX into a high tax/turd world state, too.
Still not making a lot sense.
Are you suggesting liberals in CA who can’t afford to live there are moving to Texas, then turn around and vote for more liberal policies such as higher taxes?
Vote early-—vote often==Democrat mantra
No sale there.
If Reagan ran today for anything in California he would finish a distant third behind the top two democrats. The population that elected him statewide four times has been replaced by a new population, one that is hostile to the United States.
Millions of dollars has been spent trying to win over this new population to the ideas of liberty, free-markets, and equality under the law. It has ended in ashes.
Ha...no sale.......to you?
Okay, FRiend.....meanwhile, here in TX.....
If we lose Texas or even Arizona, we will never have a Republican President again. Not hyperbole.
It just does not make much sense to me why a CA liberal in liberal paradise, would voluntarily move to Texas.
How many of these precast ballots are fraudulent? We know the Dems have been cheating and no one ever seriously investigates even when there are more votes than voters.
SMH.
Are you in CA?
Did you grow up there?
Do you remember what it was like, say, back in the ‘50’s??
What changed CA?
0blama has helped by importing Dim voters/’children’ and their families, to red states.
How many unaccompanied ‘children’ went to CA? Not many, that I know of.
It’s a disorder that they want to spread, everywhere.
Aren’t the ten largest counties in Texas purple or blue anyway? Populous areas usually are.
Probably most of the for the democrat’s mailed-in ballots were from migrant invader motor voters.
Do you consider poo filled SanFranFreako a paradise? LA, from what I hear and read, is in similar shape.
Nonstop traffic, 24/7, etc, etc.
Is that Utopia or paradise??
I would suspect that this blue wave would be stopped by verifying the mail in ballots.
Not buying all that either. For the most part, people certainly don’t move just to, “Spread” their liberalism. Even liberals have lives outside politics.
The only libs I can see moving to Texas from CA, are maybe the low percentage that opt to move if their company relocates there. And overall, that would be a very small percentage of the population.
Aren’t the ten largest counties in Texas purple or blue anyway? Populous areas usually are.
No, not even.
Harris and Travis counties are obviously blue.
As of 2016, of the state’s 36 districts, 25 are held by Republicans.
And that’s what the rest of the GOP voters think as they sit on their lazy butts and not vote.
No tx is not closed. When you go to vote they ask if you want a Republican or democrat ballot. But if there is a runoff, then you have to stay with that party.
The entire government of California is controlled by Democrats, the Republicans in California have been turned into cattle to be milked by the Democratic vote buying illegal migrant scheme. With millions of imported votes, no conservative has a chance in Hell for freedom.
The Californian leaving for Texas is a conservative that has had his freedom and home stolen from him by leftists. Quit letting your bigotry turn him into an enemy.
