Blue Texas

With early voting already suggesting a record turnout for Democrats, and widespread speculation about what effect an endorsement by President Trump will have on Republican candidates, the Texas primaries are being looked at as both a bellwether for the rest of the nation - and a sign the red state could be turning purple more quickly than expected.

Not all people that vote in the Democratic primary will vote Democratic in the general election.

However, I do agree that the increased number of blue voters should be of concern. These are not the old school Texas Democrats, the are social justice warriors of the new Millenium!

Texas demographics are changing. GOP needs to peel the Hispanic vote away from the Dems, or Texas will go Dem at some point.

Texas is already blue. We just haven't realized it yet. If you look at what's happening in Harris County Dallas San Antonio Austin, pretty soon you're going to see no Republicans getting elected to office

Been saying this here for several years myself, mostly due to in migration from out of state and differences in birth rates.

Just do what others do. Especially Sheriffs. Switch between names depending on the political winds.

Considering its over $20 grand to have one child and an average of $50k-$70k for education. $500+ a month for medical insurance. School Tax. It'd almost seem it was that way by design.

This. But Hispanics + Millennials is a double whammy. Old school hard working Hispanics are a dying breed

It's said if they grab Tarrant, then we're doomed. As of 2016 we voted similar to TX, 52% to 43%. That's a slim gap.

I have 4 kids, but I'm Filipino, so we only net 2 white kids. Realistically, with my strong genes, we only have 1 white-looking kid lol.

We've also got the dilemma in our district of Mega-RINO Charlie Geren vs. the heavily-endorsed Bo French.... yet he's also got a tainted past. Sued by Taya Kyle twice.
