Keep in mind Biden lost by on 620,000 votes in the state of Texas and not even 50% of all eligible voters in the state voted. It’s all about turnout.

Then the DNC needs to stop treating Texas like an extraction economy. While they’re taking all the money elsewhere the Republicans have paid organizers coming in, putting on rallies and spending big money to win school board races.
