What's going in texas 6th district special election?

[DemocracyWins]

Looks like Sanchez is in a distant 3rd place, with Ellzey and Wright being in a 1 and 2nd place. Not feeling good about this.

1. The Tarrant County portion of the district is Democratic,

Ellis and Navarro counties are very conservative so this comes as no surprise.

2. Only 79 percent reported in the Sanchez district so maybe she can make it to second.

3. Did you honestly expect a pickup?

It's been Red for decades.

4. I mean this is a jungle primary

and it looks like it might be between two republicans the democrat looks she is not going to make it.

5. True

But even if a Democrat makes it to second, she'd be a heavy underdog going into the election.

6. 23 total candidates

but she isn't down by a lot and there are votes out there.

7. The Good News is the Biggest Trump Blow-Hard is in 4th Place-Brian Harrison

10. For whatever reason though, Trump endorsed Wright

She'll likely win the runoff too.

8. 87% of vote counted

Wright(R) will make the runoff. Ellzey(R) only leads by 236 votes over Sanchez(D), with the majority of uncounted votes in Tarrant County. This one will be a nail-biter. The Tarrant County D vote is splitting between Shawn Lassiter(D) and Sanchez.
