Abbott has been one of the worst things to happen to Texas when it has mattered most. It’s tragic really. Under his watch that state, which was once a stalwart, deep red state has turned an into a hazy purple, at serious risk of going entirely blue, and is in absolute chaos as a result.
This supports why I didn’t vote for Abbott in the primary with another reason why. I’ve been disillusioned with him for years. He’s weak in action but big on words and unkept promises. My vote will always be for a better Republican, but the establishment keeps pushing the wrong ones. Abbott is weak and has done little to help the GOP in our legislature get things done, especially when Dems pick the speaker of the House. So frustrating 🤬🤬. Paxton was the best we had and will be strong in the Senate next year.
Abbott, like Susan Collins and many others, are in office because they appear to be thoughtful politician instead of true leaders like President Trump. Everyone knows where President Trump stands on practically every issue because he is diligent in his desire to be transparent and to share his views and opinions. This is the mark of a true leader. The importance of debate and discussion has been watered down by mainstream media reporting. Like Platner, the devil is in the details and the media camouflages the facts so that they retain power through their narratives. You study the issues. The average citizen is just trying to keep up with news. They don’t have a background in political science or basic understanding of history. I have friends who are totally out of touch with politics, but tune back in for a short time to vote in major elections. That is what makes midterms so difficult. People like Paxton are great communicators and leaders and that is why he is so hated.
In NH we allow unaffiliated (undeclared/independent) to vote in Primaries. In a Primary a Democrat must vote Democrat, a Republican must vote Republican. An Undeclared voter must choose either D or R. They may make this change (From Undeclared to one of the two parties on Primary day), when queried by an Inspector of the Election when checking in at the polls. Immediately after voting, if the voter so elects, they may return to Undeclared by their signature on affidavit, otherwise the D or R designation will remain on the book of registered voters until such time as they can legally change it (back) at a later time..
Mr. Muse: Thank you for yr fine work and educating us on what’s happening in TX since none of this is exposed elsewhere. I followed this story but what do you advise us do about it? Contact our legislators - local and state - and how do we phrase our concern? It’s all complicated and twisted purposely. Many of us are lay people w lives and jobs and need prompts from experts like you to assist us into clear action. Thank you!
South Carolina is an open primary state, which is why we've been stuck with Lindsey Graham...until God decided otherwise. But the Dems will vote in the emergency election too, and who knows who we will get stuck with this time.
The uniparty protection continues. Can't let outsiders interfere with the system, got a nice little racket going. I gave up on traditional Republicans when they finally got a majority and demonstrated that they could spend like drunken sailors every bit as irresponsibly as Democrats. A pox on the uniparty.
Yikes. Even Texas is unanswerable to the voters, despite the Paxton rout.
I am still sending every Republican party solicitation back with nothing but a note, "Pass the SAVE America Act."

Pass the save act period

Who are these grassroots conservatives in Texas?
No wonder Texas is being taken over by sharia law 🤬
Open primaries cause candidates to moderate their messages. That’s how conservative voters end up with Rinos like Cornyn.

You tell ‘em, Alex!
You are the establishment, agitator.
