not true. i’m staying here in part to serve people who are otherwise disempowered. texans, if you care about people and you care about this place, i hope some of you will stick around so we can make it better.
i respect that some just don’t want to and some don’t feel safe. but i also think enough people who care can make a difference.
Texas is very much a purple area. It could completely flip blue in certain areas, which is why you might have noted all the efforts to suppress the vote at the state level, such as throwing out Houston’s votes.
It also drives any one more progressive than a stone wheel out of the state meaning there’s just fewer democrats to vote against their dear leader
Sort of like gerrymandering but completely legal!

Texas hasn’t voted blue since 1976. It ain’t happening anyway.

how much of that is the more traditional kind of gerrymandering, though? They’re not as bad as WI, but they’re taking notes.
