President Trump’s political team is encouraging Republican leaders in Texas to examine how House district lines in the state could be redrawn ahead of next year’s midterm elections to try to save the party’s endangered majority, according to people in Texas and Washington who are familiar with the effort.
I believe we have enough people of the political leaning in Texas to oust the Republicans, but only if they get the fuck to the polls and vote. Which they historically have not done.
It’s probably been several cycles in a row that the Democratic Presidential nominee had garnered more votes in Texas than the Republican Gubernatorial nominee.
You know I never even thought to compare that. Turnout here is just so bloody awful.
