People taking that "next time" shyt

Minorities in Texas vote according to region and political identity. Latinos and immigrants in Border counties and Metros voted for Beto.

Honestly Beto lost but Texas Republicans are looking super weak. They lost several counties indirectly because of Beto. Cruz lost Ft. Bend and Harris. Two places he won the last time and where he lives. That's got to hurt.

He cost the Republicans in Texas seats. A more moderate Republican would have retain some of the counties he lost. Fletcher can thank Beto for getting liberal and independent voters to help her win.

Beto never had a chance once he started talking about banning rifles

As dumb as it may seem his name is CRUZ. Latinos that don't know shyt about politics might vote off the name alone who knows.

He is Latino lol

 

[Shogun]

I think religion plays larger in Texas than most people consider.

Beto pulled a Cynthia Nixon and dragged a lot of down-ballot Dems across the finish line. Regardless of my scepticism about him, he has my respect for that.

Yall don't know Texas

Are you DUMB? it is Texas.

BETO had a 0% chance and i kept telling yall that

I was born and grew up in a Texas with a Democratic governor and state legislature you dummies. Democrats WON 12 more seats there last night and now have 63 seats to the Rethugs 85 and the Rethugs are going to be in for it when state wide census redistricting leave their power crippled even more as urban areas gain more seats. Beto was huge for Dems in the state last night, his momentum won them huge gains.

Swear to god none of you actually pay attention to any of this shyt and just come out after the fact to post hoc waste away anything accomplished.

Florida is the state that will never have a blue wave again, their purple status might as well be gone given the massive demographic shifts. The only purple status they might have is the presidential election as that traditionally has higher turnout and a turns out "undecided" voters.

But Texas always turns out a lot of dems and that number will only go up as it has for years.

 

[Koapa]

I know a lot of people who didnt vote. My boy literally said, the Dems gonna win away.

Boyz aint learn shyt from the 2016 election.

Florida is the state that will never have a blue wave again, their purple status might as well be gone given the massive demographic shifts.

The state that Democrats lost by a razor's margin and just enfranchised 1.5 million former felons is never going blue again?

 

[Serious]

Too many rural poor cacs and white-Hispanics

All this talk about blacks not showing up to vote, yet all these Mexicans stayed home and a 3rd of the ones who did come out voted for Cruz

his last name is cruz....

He came within 2% even though dumb folk like you were trying to keep people's hopes down and keep saying he had no chance.

If Black and youth turnout ever reached old White turnout than Texas would be flipped already.

Cacs and immigrants same thing that did us in

Mexican assimilation to be white. These fools come across the border, ridiculed, spat on, treated like low class citizens but they still want to be like the white man.

Until they grow some balls it will always be status quo here

Latinos voted something like 65% for Beto.
