Exactly. I voted in 5 races this morning, and the person I voted for will lose all 5.
Exactly what commonalities do I share with the MAGA GOP?
But hey, throw your lot in with working class rural voters, the most rapidly shrinking demographic in the country. #smart
(In fairness, such voters put Trump over the top in the 2016 election, one he lost the popular vote by 2.3%. I don’t think current coalitions would allow Trump to overcome that deficit and still win the EC.)
When did popularity in primaries equal popularity in a general election.
Btw, I’m sure you will enjoy the second term of your terrible Dem Governor. Cuz that’s coming.
Haha. The stupid GOP spent 100M on your amnesty boy Cornyn and he got destroyed.
Andy Biggs is awesome. Let’s see what happens as Arizona has reddened since 2024. Your last Arizona prediction told us Justin Heap would lose after defeating RINO traitor Richer. Oops, you got that wrong. You may become the equivalent to Jeff gloating about market crashes. Cramer Train.
Time for you to lose emotion and decide Paxton or Tarico. It’s really that simple. Do you find it hard to get behind the American flag or not?
I will be voting for Talarico. Zero chance I’d ever vote for Ken Paxton. I said this months and months ago, I would never vote for Paxton in a general.
I’ve made countless predictions on politics. Many were right, many were wrong. You bragging about winning a bet I’m pretty sure you gave 4 or 5 to 1 odds is hilarious but typical.
In the three public polls this year, Biggs is trailing Hobbs by an average of over 6%. Enjoy the Dem running the state. Wonder if she’ll get full control of the legislature lol?
Just to be clear here, the total number of voters cast in Hidalgo County (biggest in the RGV) in these two elections.
2026 Dem Senate primary - 60,000
2026 GOP Runoff - 6500 trending towards 9-10K.
So Dem primary participate was only 6-6.5x tonight. Doesn’t seem great for Rs to me.
And let’s look at Cameron County, which has always been somewhat more R (second biggest county down there)
2026 Dem Senate primary - 32,500
2026 GOP Runoff - 5500 trending towards 7-7.5K
Btw Cornyn won both counties in the first round, and neither were that close. I’m sure Trump inspired some switchers but seems like the Cornyn vote just isn’t as likely to show up for a runoff (which was always a problem for Cornyn tho runoff turnout looks terrible to me considering several high profile races on the ballot).
