Can the FBI just arrest Greg Abbot?

111. You are so right Magick! Fear of losing guns, fear of LGBTQ in general

fear of the border, fear of losing their white privilege (this is the main reason, the rest are subtopics) Throw in the religious right, the Christian Nationalists, forced birthers and you have a formidable voting base. They ALWAYS turn out, with info from the party telling them how to vote. (but of course you already know all this)

Not just Abbott either. All Rs here and in many other states gin this fear up 24/7! In the places they lose, the voters turned out big time especially the Democrats.

Magick, my precinct held at 45% of all registered voters and every office went blue; same for the precincts bordering mine. I am in Wedgwood (SW FW.), and I am lucky. My problem is non voters especially non-primary voters!

For the benefit of out of Texas voters: My precinct has a significant number of registered voters who have (1) never voted at all or (2) last voted in 2008 or (3) only vote in general elections or (4) only vote the top items on the ballot. Our downballot suffers hugely which hurts us badly at the local level. We do not register by party, so if they don't vote in primaries, we can't find them and target our GOTV efforts there. That makes our work 3 times as difficult. This is essentially state-wide.



Are you in Tarrant or Parker? I think we had 40% countywide here.
