Well duh, any Texan could tell you that.
can we do anything about it?
We need a lot more of us to take an active interest in educating ourselves to be informed voters, and then we need to vote in every single election. It sounds simple, but is a lot more complicated when you have an underfunded school system and active propaganda machines that have been screwing up the minds of Texans for the last several decades.
It does sound simple right? I've been an avid voter and I'm in a bubble here in district 35 so it feels like everyone I know avidly votes progressive as well but obviously that's why the bubble was built.
Not to mention, the state government seems to be going out of their way to try to make sure only the “right” people vote
They don't call it the lone star state for nothing.
Worse than Florida? Wow!
To the surprise of literally nobody...
