And I have come to realize we must also support conservative candidates financially.I have researched it. The percentage of registered voters that participated in the 2016 election was roughly the same for both states at about 60%. Texas had a higher percentage turn out in 2018, attributable to the US Senate race. That was an anomaly for a mid-cycle election.
For everyone that keeps saying ‘we have to keep that from happening here’, I’m curious how many actually give time (not treasure) to their state party, county, and candidate efforts to win. That’s what the Ds Are really good at...raising money to pay people to lead and participate in grass roots motivation.
Whereas Rs in Texas typically take their votes for granted. Hell, Cruz didn’t take Beto seriously until it was almost too late.
I had never contributed to anyone's campaign until W ran for president. And did not again for a while after. But that has changed.
To some degree, we must counter the Soros', Bloombergs and other out of state liberals.
