4. Nobody likes Cruz, he's like that creepy uncle that shows up at family gatherings.

Places like Dallas, Austin, Houston, San Antonio will overwhelmingly vote for Allred because they’re populated with people who want Texas to move forward, not back to the 1850’s. The problem is once you get outside of those city limits’, the landscape turns ruby red and those areas are populated with people who have walls literally dedicated to their cross collections, they have Trump flags flying from the beds of their pickups, and they’ll vote for a longhorn cowpie if it has an “R” after it’s name. Belligerently ignorant, the lot of ‘em.
