The border counties are poor like Mexico and people migrate back and forth from/to Mexico to work. It’s a different society along the border.
The rest of Texas counties is are mostly red except for the counties with the big cities. Some like Houston are sanctuary cities. I think as they migrate north to find jobs they congregate in these big cities or settle in others where relatives live.
The thing missed by the Washington liberals is that Texas is already very Hispanic (several generations and integrated) with strong Texas values. They helped build Texas into what it is today. Hispanics are very family oriented and more conservative than people think. Like the old democrats before them they are gradually shifting to the Republican party. The illegals are not going to overrun Texas and scrap our values for those of a sh*t hole like Mexico (or California) any time soon.
The voter-id thing will determine the fate of future Texas elections. I don’t think the liberals can win without fraud and most older Texans know all the tricks from the old democratic days. If honest elections prevail it’s adios Texas for Battleground Texas and a lot of the illegal troublemakers.
