    As someone who actually lives in Texas this is such awesome news. Eveyone kept saying oh just leave the state! No…fuck that. We need MORE like-minded people to stay and vote these Maga idiots out of office. Texas will prob never be fully blue. But I’ll take a purple Texas over the direction it was headed any day.

      Honestly, this gives me hope. I live in a red state and I’ve always heard the “leave the state” argument, but it’s my state too! I also see people getting tired of the same old rhetoric from the magats and I couldn’t be happier.

      I actually love a lot of things about our state. There are good people, there’s good food, there’s some really beautiful scenery, the music scene is crazy…I really like it here. I just hate the jackasses running the place.

      DFW, Austin, and Houston account for a lot of people. All blue as fuck. If we could get people excited about something, anything, we could easily be purple.
