Missed this when it dropped a couple weeks ago. There’s a lesson here for Laredo too. Also can we agree that it’s way past time for Texas to vote the GOP out?

Don't forget the Dem propositions! This is what TX Dem primary voters believe and gives candidates a tip on where to focus. While everything (except the pot prop) got 95%-ish; protecting the environment got +99%. Candidates need to pay attention.

here're the outcomes of our primary races (and some republicans') as well as lists that will be updated as final votes come in in some races. There will be more information in coming days. *Thank You* Michelle, and I really would like to hear about dem turnout. Was it really record-breaking?
