Texas 2022 megathread

[Non Swing Voter]

Safe R. It's not there yet.

Given the 2020 results, Texas doesn't seem to be trending leftward very much. Democrats still have further to fall with Hispanics.

I do agree that this race is Safe R. Abbott could literally be the mastermind behind COVID and still win easily.

Well if Texans don't care how bad their leadership is as long as there's an (R) next to their name then I guess that's why they're in the current problem they're in.  Meanwhile (D) states with (R) governors like MA, MD, etc. are doing better than ever.

Can anyone vote in either primary in TX or is it restricted by party?  Like could Dems sabotage Abbott by voting for West?  In Virginia you can just take either primary ballot (when the GOP decides to actually have primaries that is).

Yes.

In Texas, we don't really have partisan registration.

Everyone is independent. But once you vote in a party's primary, you are with that party for the calendar year. You can't vote in the runoff for the other party.

Damn, why is Lincoln Project not all over this yet.  This calls for Dem dirty tricks.
