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?
Oops, someone on here thinks Latinos are stupid and will vote for Tarico because his name ends with a vowel.
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).

I am guessing if you wrote down policy you agree with it, it would not align much or at all with Talarico. You don't have to watch a lot of tape on him to know this isn't a vote to brag about.
I live in a neighborhood of people that used to work in large cities. I am guessing well over 80% of them have advanced degrees. I know 4 people that vote dem of probably 80ish I know well. Of the four, three are ladies. Two have bachelors and didn't work outside the home in a career. Their husbands have advanced degrees and hit it big. The other lady is part of a husband/ wife attorney team from California that recently bought here to escape the politics they voted for. This makes little sense unless you don't believe the nonsense flying out of your pie hole.
I was at a get together last week where five couples discussed politics. Probably half would have supported someone other than Trump in the last presidential primary. Eight of the ten had advanced degrees and all sleighed their careers. All were voting against Cornyn. Two people knew him personally and were not voting for him.
I am not sure I see the young purple haired city ladies with sociology or art degrees as high information voters like you do.

Another emotionally hysterical laughing outburst by the hyena…. Not sure what’s funny about this post but the emotionally deranged sure thinks it’s funny.
