Reminder that runoffs will be held on May 24. AG republican primary is almost certain to go to one.

Also some bold predictions, I expect Beto and Dan Patrick to be called the winners of their respective primaries immediately at poll closing, as neither of them really had any serious opposition. Though if not at the 7pm CST poll closings then they should be called at 8pm CST once the polls in El Paso close (since El Paso is in the Mountain Time Zone).

I don't think there are any exit polls so the AP will wait until at least a little of the vote is in before calling anything. Should not take long since the early vote drops pretty quick.

What I am looking forward to is Louie Gohmert finishing 4th in the AG race. I love it when a sitting congressperson gives up a safe seat only to crash and burn in a primary.

At this point we can pretty much project, even before polls close in both time zones, that Beto O'Rourke will be the democratic nominee for governor of Texas.

But is Beto contested for the nomination at all? It’s tough to say, nobody on here has addressed that topic yet

Is it that hard for you to look up? Lots of info on the internet.

Bexar county results

 Cisneros is getting 72% of the vote in TX28 in the county.

Beto at 90% early. It's over.

How dare Beto demand action and call out those who have helped enable this countries insane gun culture. Doesn't he know now is the time for thought and prayers (and fundraisers like the one Abbot attended last night).

And Beto is the clown?
