hot take: id rather flip the texas state house than have biden win texas

Obviously.  If Biden were to win Texas, he would already have more than enough electoral votes to win.

This would be so huge. Flipping the State House would block Republican efforts to gerrymander after the 2020 census. I'm glad they have put in tons of ressources in the state. Even if Joe Biden narrowly falls short, investing in Texas is very smart, though I'm not sure the State House actually flips in case Joe Biden doesn't carry the state.

Pretty sure that if the TX state House and senate deadlock it goes to some sort of comission where like 4/5 officers would be Republicans?



So still allows for a gerrymander, just with slightly more effort.

That is just for the state legislative redistricting.
