steve4102 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 ...for the first time in 139 years. Voters elected political newcomer Pete Flores to the Texas Senate on Tuesday, flipping a Democratic district red for the first time in 139 years and bolstering Republicans’ supermajority in the chamber ahead of the November elections. A retired game warden, Flores defeated former state and U.S. Rep. Pete Gallego for the Senate District 19 seat after receiving backing from some of the state’s most prominent politicians, including Gov. Greg Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, and U.S. Sens John Cornyn and Ted Cruz. According the Secretary of State’s website, Flores won with 53 percent of the vote to Gallego’s 47 percent with 44,487 ballots cast. Flores and Gallego competed in Tuesday’s runoff after emerging from an eight-candidate field in first- and second-place, respectively, in July’s special election to replace former DEMOCRAT Sen. Carlos Uresti. The longtime lawmaker vacated his seat in June after being convicted of 11 felony charges. https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/article/Polls-close-at-7-p-m-in-Senate-District-19-13239398.php 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historian Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 And this is why I think the media is spreading the lies of a blue wave. I think we're going to hold the house and senate. Especially, after the issue of Diane Feinstein's letter this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricB Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) The only blue wave you will see this year: All these polls and statements by the MSM that Dems will win, Dems lead in polls is commie propaganda. Same **** they used with Hillary against Trump. The media is untrustworthy and biased. Even illegal immigrants don't want socialism. They risked their lives to get away from it. The only people crying for socialism are the rich Dem politicians and their cult like first world babies who think their lives suck so bad. Only in America are the "poor" considered rich in some countries. Edited September 19, 2018 by EricB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
