The Democrats now have a group in Texas that works year-round to turn Texas into a battleground state by turning out the Hispanic votes. Hispanic turnout significantly lags behind white turnout.

Had the Democrats not lift a finger, Texas will turn into a battleground state in 2028 or 2032, but they are doing a lot more than lift a finger.

With this group, Texas will turn into a battleground state in 2020 or 2024.

Texas will likely NOT become a swing state until 2040.

In other words, in the immediate future, Democratic presidents will only be able to win Texas under very favorable circumstances. It certainly won't be able to swing the election so not yet a swing state.

Texas will be then what North Carolina is now: winnable for Democrats, but doesn't change the result of the election.
