Help make this the year that Texas flips for senate and or for president!
I’m absolutely not going to bank on it, but holy shit, can you imagine the shitshow in the GOP if Texas goes blue? Like… jesus. I think that’d actually sink the modern GOP entirely.
As if the GOP has any sense of introspection.
Its been sorta expected to happen eventually. Texas is only not a swing state because of things like voter suppression. There’s only 6 states with worse turnout than Texas. If Texas had the turnout of Minnesota, it might just be a blue state.
Intended to vote yesterday, but something came up and I couldn’t. Voted today. Longest lines I’ve seen at a polling place for early voting.
I know it’s anecdote, but I’m hopeful.
Mine was really long too, and was full of a lot of women there on their own. I hope that the taking of their autonomy and rights was enough to get a lot of them out there to boost our numbers.
I voted yesterday and it was crazy busy. The absolute busiest early voting I’ve ever seen.
My concern with early voting is it’ll make it easier for them to target democratic voters, especially if the numbers are that skewed.
How many votes did we lose by last time?
