Texas 2022 megathread

[Schiff for Senate]

Likely Republican, though the chances of it actually flipping blue are very, very unlikely. If I had to guess right now what an Abbott v. O'Rourke matchup would look like, I'd say Abbott wins by around 7-8% or so (but probably on the lower side of that).

We get Beto vs. Abbott. This is the worst of both world, but hey, that's American politics.

I like Beto, but he can't win after his comments on guns, aside from the fact that 2022 will be redder than 2018 and Abbott is much more popular than Cruz.

Yeah I'm surprised I voted Likely R earlier, it feels more like Safe R, honestly.

Just wanted to point out something irrelevant but still interesting...Beto managed just 1.6% of the vote in Roberts County, the nation's reddest. He won 7 votes - just two more than the 5 votes some random independent managed. In the Attorney General Race, the Democrat managed 1.8% (8 votes) - better than O'Rourke - but she still tied for third place with some random independent candidate. For whatever reason the Democratic candidate for Lt. Gov. actually did comparatively "well", receiving a full 6.2% of the vote (lol). He won 27 votes - nearly 4 times as many as Beto did.
