These are the same folks who overwhelmingly voted Republican even after the 2021 Winter Freeze, Cruz fleeing to Cancun during it and the Uvalde shooting.

There's no such thing as self-respect in Texas

Republican margins have been shrinking in Texas.
Cornyn went from winning by 27.2 points in 2014 to winning by 9.6 points in 2020.
Abbott went from winning by 20.4 points in 2010, to winning by 13.3 points in 2018, to winning by 11 points in 2022. And remember that 2018 was a D+9 year, while 2022 was an R+3 year. Also remember that this was WITH massive voter suppression and Paxton ADMITTING to preventing 2.5 million mail-in ballot applications in Harris County from going through in 2020 so Trump would win the state.
Cruz went from winning by 16.1 points in 2012 to winning by 2.6 points in 2018.

Texas is always going to be safe red unless its a '64-level Dem landslide. People have been talking about a blue Texas being just around the corner since at least 2008.

Plus Republicans will NOT let Texas flip blue. The minute that happens, they can kiss any chance of winning a national election goodbye.

Something something, Ken Paxton bragging about throwing out votes, something something. Anyone who believes Texas has fair elections at this point is a bigger fool than the people who vote for Cruz.

A smaller GOP win is the same as a larger GOP win in the EC. I'll believe that Texas is realistically in play in a reasonably close election when I see it.

Texas at most will be the cherry on top of a huge Dem win, or it'll stay red in a normal election. No point holding one's breath otherwise.

Cruz is a lock for TX because idiots in my state consider ignorance a sign of strength, not weakness.

You know your constituents are dumb when you leave them to die in the cold, joke about it, and they still vote to re-elect you.

I'm looking at past political maps of Texas, and noticed that the races have been getting closer as turnout increases.

Coincidence?

No. When dems turn out, Republicans lose, period.

Absolutely.

That's also why the GOP in Arizona introduced a bill that would allow their electors to just choose the candidate regardless of how the state's people voted.

More than just that, since it's been going on for so long. Texans are just lazy and submissive. Even the Dems are too lazy to make a difference. They could flip Texas blue tomorrow, but the turnout is never there.

Texas has more than enough Dems to flip the state, but they're so used to losing that they've kind of given up.
