League of Women's voters puts out a reasonable questionnaire each year, on which I base my vote.
I almost never vote for anyone who does not reply to the League, I figure if you can't be bothered to respond to them, you don't need to be in office.
My picks:
Gov Lupe Valdez
Lt Gov Mike Collier
Comptroller: Joi Chevalier (very sharp written response, stands out)
Land Office Tex Morgan (another hands down response)
RailRoad Commisioner: Roman McCallen
Most of the rest are running opposed in primaries.
13th district Dori Contreras who answered, where her opponent did not. Easy call there.
JUSTICE, 14TH COURT OF APPEALS, PLACE 3
Joseph R. Willie II (hit on more issues relevant to office than his opponent, including indigent representation and fair pay for public defenders)
JUSTICE, 14TH COURT OF APPEALS, PLACE 8
Margaret “Meg” Poissant --better response in general, another one that touched on more issues, and more meaningfully than opponent
Anyhoo, have fun voting.

Those blurbs make the court of appeals judges sound horrific. "I would like to bring an African American perspective to the 14th Court of appeals." wtf does that even mean? There's an African American perspective to interpreting the rules of civil procedure? the civil practice and remedies code?

Yeah, wouldn't vote for her, if her name was on my ballot.
I am not funky fresh. I am a grouchy old white guy.

In her defense, there may have been a charactor limit for some web input. I could see doing a quick, if juvenile edit to get in a full thought.Michele Barber Chimene (D)

Still not getting my vote. That much experience as an attorney means you should be able to wordsmith better.
Texas Democrats are especially disgusting. Go up another state.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...=.d5780c83e872turnout among Democrats is up 46 percent over the last midterm elections in 2014. For Republicans, meanwhile, turnout is basically flat.
Suck it. That is a high enough percentage to flip my state representative from red to blue.
AND
Democrats have fielded candidates for way more races, and have more people running in the primary. We get a good field to choose from.
That said, the rich old white guy brigade is ting bricks and trying to buy up as many places as possible to staunch the bleeding.
I can't think of a better way to piss us off more than by watching all that money trying to buy my state government over our votes.
Again:
Suck.
It.
TX rurals aint going blue
Cruz wiil ouspend Beto and very probably crush him
Cant really conclude anything useful from primary turnout
One Texas Board of Education primary result could spell a return to culture wars

As oposed to how great it is now with Cruz's types running your state into the ground and back to the 50s.
Beto has been to almost every single county in the state at this point, including some that haven't seen a Senate candidate since the 60's.
Rural probably won't go blue, unless heavily Hispanic, but state wide offices are a whole other ball game.

Beto has nothing better to do than campaign, and no one really likes Cruz, as the article points out.
Long shot at this point, but still...
.
You’re the only one sucking it when your bull comes by, again you’re disgusting stop trying to turn Texas into California it’ll never happen.
Yeah no. It will happen at some point. But not for a few years.
Hillary lost that state by 10 points instead of by 40. Texas can be won with just the big cities ala New York. Republicans always win the rural areas handily but the boroughts make up the difference and more.
Again, Texas is behind the times. The new generation will have the final say and the signs are there that it can flip.
it'll eventually happen considering all the dip s out in ATX.
Trump pissed off the cuckservative Cruzlims and riled up a bunch of Hispanics who don’t normally vote and still won by 10 which is a huge margin
Not a matter of "if", but "when".
My kids are very, very pale compared to their classmates. My oldest will be eligible to vote in 2021.

As I have said before, I have little doubt what the porn history in your browser looks like.
Too cute, but hey, you be you.
Nope, I was told by other posters hat your wife posted or used to post here and that you guys would post about your cuckoldry.

thanks for the link. it was helpful.
Nope. Sorry. She said X, they saw Y, and it is as true now as it never was.
As I said, projection. We are very boring people, but it is always funny to see people think we are not.
You are welcome.
For those who haven't clicked: League gives both parties' candidates views.
Now boots got the goods.
I am very concerned about the History textbook selection.
I have a friend who teaches history who said the redo ~8 years ago was horrible. But he teaches the honors kids so he does not even use it. I get the feeling most of the HS history teachers that are hired go with real historians. Not what some legislators or winger nut jobs want. They actually read something other than Twitter and 4chan.
The slavery thing in Texas that the textbooks tried to dance around was laughable.
Allrighty then boots. Good deal.
Our voter registration efforts were concentrated in student areas, with yours truly handing out a few of them in a blockwalking effort or two.
Micro-evidence, but our local strategy to bump up Democratic party vote tallies includes the local University.
Looks like that effort is starting to pay off. If we can get them to vote in the primaries... we can get more to vote in the general.
BAM.
