1. The "Urban" part of the county makes up a much smaller amount of it than Dallas.
2. It has a lower percentage of minority voters than the other major counties.
3. Dems don't do well in suburban areas besides Austin, although Hillary has generally outperformed Obama here.
Dems need to wait for the county to diversity/urbanize and/or swing the white suburban vote into their corner to win Tarrant. They've had Travis and the Rio Grande counties for ages, it worked for Harris, Dallas, and Bexar with Obama, it worked for Fort Bend with Hillary, and it could very well be the 2020 election that flips Tarrant.
