Beto actually outperformed Biden in the RGV and Austin and nearly matched Biden in the Houston area (trailing Biden's margin by about 1% in most counties there). However, he lost massive ground compared to Biden in the entire DFW area (losing Tarrant and it's not even close, Abbott up by double digits in Collin and Denton) and in the rurals. This is basically the opposite of what we were expecting!
One of the better coalition shifts as far as D underperformances go. Although the R overperformance among Asians in the exit poll and Fort Bend makes me wonder what exactly Beto did to piss off the Chinese, Indian, Filipino, and Vietnamese Boomer immigrants… Too bad Bagel23 is no longer with us…
On a sidenote, all the Progressive Candidates Olowakandi endorsed LOST.
What about Lina Hidalgo?
