I can say for certain that R turnout in Texas is going to be VERY high. I keep talking to people who haven’t voted in many years, who are so pissed off about this Betomania BS, that they can’t wait to vote. I think the real surprise is going to be where this vote will come from - deep blue areas like Austin. Many there have not voted in a long time, because their vote didn’t matter, this year they are saying F it, and are voting anyway. That is going to be the hidden R vote this cycle, people in deep-blue areas that have finally reach their limit of dem BS.

I am noticing this as well. A very good friend of mine, always been a democrat from a big Texas money democrat family who has been drinking the kool-aid for all these years has finally had enough. She told me last week that she is voting for Cruz this time, and she plans to vote early in case she is sick or something on election day. The Kavanaugh thing infuriated her.
Also, a friend of mine from work who NEVER even votes at all is voting for Cruz and has ordered signs for his front yard. Same thing, Kavanaugh thing sickened him.
Decent people in Texas are going to come out in droves to vote AGAINST democrats, even if they don’t like Republicans either, to save America from ever having another Kavanaugh travesty happen again.
On twitter, a “Texologist” had a note that five of the blue counties were really, really down.
Nearly every other house in Austin sports a popular “Beto” sign.
