Talarico is the kind of candidate Democrats mistake for “fresh” because they live inside their own weird bubble. Real Texans will see something else: woke Austin theology, soft-border politics, gender nonsense, anti-normal cultural signaling, and the same progressive vocabulary that turns cities into faculty lounges with crime stats. Cornyn voters may be mad today, but they are still Republicans living in Texas. Once the choice becomes Paxton versus Talarico—not Paxton versus Cornyn—partisan gravity takes over. Muse’s point is dead-on: you do not poll a bruise. You wait for it to fade. Then Texas votes red again.
It also is very encouraging that Cornyn immediately said he would spend his time helping Republicans win, including for Paxton. That's a class-act gesture.
I admit it went a small way toward repairing the regard I used to have for the man. But I'm still glad Paxton won. He will vote reliably for my priorities. Cornyn flopped when it mattered.
It was a class act but do not let it repair your regard. This was not a sudden flop. He has always sold you out for big business. Look at his voting record going waaaaay back.
"I have voted conservative since the 70s, but this year and this year alone I will vote for the gay vegan Talafreako because the primary result offended me!" says no Texas conservative ever.
6 year slots, super important. Predict $100+ Million spend by the left just because these slots are that important. Odds of a cornyn R flipping to an extreme leftist dem, highly doubtful.
Texas doesn’t have mail-in voting the way some states do. Only absentee voting for specific reasons, and the voter has to request a ballot from their county in advance. Also, the voter has to provide their Texas drivers license number or other acceptable ID number on the ballot.
Per AI search assistant:
In Texas, you can vote by mail if you are 65 years or older, sick or disabled, expect to give birth within three weeks of Election Day, will be absent from your county during the election, or are confined in jail but eligible to vote. Applications for mail ballots must be submitted no later than 11 days before the election.
Narrator: If this were true, ol' Simbro would have posted a link so we could judge the quality of the fact he's claiming. There's no link, which is a Clue.
I'm impressed with your typing skills and not much else.
Detail simpleton left out, because it complicates why he was born there.
"He was born while his father was stationed at Minot Air Force Base. Paxton moved back to Texas with his family in 1966." Four years old. You're ridiculous.
Geez. Can't even block that one as it appears to already be deleted. Wish there was a way to track these profiles by IP address. If they are big money bots they are likely bouncing their traffic thru multiple VPNs, so that also would be problematic.
Frankly, I don’t care how “Texan” Talarico’s family was. He’s still a socialist who espouses darn near everything I’m against! Paxton may not have been born here, but he certainly represents Texans better than Talarico can.
Far too many Texans believe the fake impeachment meant Paxton was guilty. I personally will support him because he fought for our rights during the covid scam, and he is fighting against the trans butchery.

The Cornyn supporters' threat just shows how RINOs are just as anti-American as democrats. Also, my advice to Paxton - don't trust the NRSC.

You report a bruise if you want to malreport the truth.

$20 says “polls” will show Talarico even to +2 on election eve.
watch the mail in vote.

Thank you Donald. 😂
Definitely. Cultists and bots gloating about this "win."
Found out today Paxton isn't even a Texan. He's from South Dakota
Talarico is fourth generation and his wife comes from the Menard family, great grandfather signed the Texas Declaration of Independence.
Oh, well that changes everything. Seems to me that the Talarico gene pool has been serverley diminished since then.

Your ignorant, arbitrary capitalization is a clue that you really are as stupid as you are insufferable.

And yet, you will suffer me. As for stupid? With a user name like that, a Village is missing an idiot. 8-)
Another troll/bot profile for me to block

Still trash
They weren't Republicans in the first place

Sorry Grandma. Reality doesn't cease because you want it to.
Texas is doomed because California moved there, as for the GOP congress… meh.
