Fun fact: in 2020 Florida Republicans paid (illegally) a man with the same last name as the Democrat incumbent to run in an effort to confuse voters and they actually succeeded. The Democrat lost by 32 votes and the sham candidate received 6,000 votes. Election was not overturned.

My opponent talks a lot about taxes, but you’ll notice he never explains why our property taxes keep going up — in spite of all the promises.
Year after year, Republicans have defunded our schools. We’re literally paying the price with higher property taxes.
Local property taxes go up when the state sends less money to school districts and local governments, and they have to close their funding gaps. The state used to be an equal partner in school funding, and property taxes were low. Not anymore!
As your Lt. Governor, I will raise the basic allotment and take pressure off our property taxes by spending the tax money we have already collected. Let’s end the cycle.

Do NOT trust the polls. A blue wave won't happen unless you personally make it happen. Vote and encourage everyone you know to vote.

The midterms are NOT a week away.
The midterms are OVER in a week.
The election is happening RIGHT NOW.
Election Day is Tuesday, November 3.
Make your plan. Cast your ballot. VOTE EARLY!

It was actually our 250th anniversary, but Paxton spent it in London so what would he know?
Paxton: On July 4th, we celebrated the 200th anniversary of our country.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
July 4 2026 marked the 250th anniversary of US independence not the 200th as claimed in the video. Multiple reports placed Paxton in London England that weekend with videos of the trip.

Microsoft got $19 billion in tax breaks from Trump.
It pays a lower federal income tax rate than a teacher.
It’s spending $60 billion on stock buybacks.
Its CEO made $90 million last year.
“Corporations will create jobs if they get tax breaks” is a total scam.

A couple days ago, I posted jobs numbers from the past 6 presidents, 3 Republican (Bush I, Bush II, and Trump) and 3 Democratic (Clinton, Obama, and Biden). Over 20 years, nearly 50 million jobs were added under the 3 Democratic presidents, whereas only 2 million have been added under the aforementioned Republicans, over the course of 17 years, 8 months. A good percentage of MAGA responders said something along the lines of, "The Democrat Party only added government jobs! Look at the private sector!"
Very well.
First, let's look at public sector or government jobs.
George H.W. Bush (R, 4 years): +1.127M
Bill Clinton (D, 8 years): +1.934M
George W. Bush (R, 8 years): +1.744M
Barack Obama (D, 8 years): -263k
Donald Trump I (R, 4 years): -575k
Joe Biden (D, 4 years): +1.816M
Donald Trump II (R, 1 year, 8 months): -230k
Democratic Presidents (20 years): +3.487M
Republican Presidents (17 years, 8 months): +2.066M
Difference: Democrats +1.421M/Republicans -1.421M
Not much difference. Now let's move onto the private sector.
George H.W. Bush (R, 4 years): +1.502M
Bill Clinton (D, 8 years): +20.979M
George W. Bush (R, 8 years): -368k
Barack Obama (D, 8 years): +11.812M
Donald Trump I (R, 4 years): -2.19M
Joe Biden (D, 4 years): +13.589M
Donald Trump II (R, 1 year, 8 months): +1.006M
Democratic Presidents (20 years): +46.380M
Republican Presidents (17 years, 8 months): -50k
Difference: Democrats +46.430M/Republicans -46.430M
That's right, over the past 37 years, 8 months, Republican presidents are actually underwater, as far as private-sector jobs go, whereas Democrats are 46 million+ above it. No matter what the GOP tries to sell you on the old, tired narrative that they're better for the economy, the numbers tell a completely different story.

Dear Republicans,
Firstly, fuck you on general principle.
Secondly, a lot of you are about to lose your jobs because of your support of Donald Trump. Ha ha, fuck you.
Thirdly, fuck you some more.
Sincerely,
Me
P.S. Fuck you.

I’ve heard several people saying that they don’t need to vote in the midterms because it’s going to be a blue wave,but if you recall we thought the same in 2024 so please don’t listen to the polls because they may be right now & then everything changes on election night.

The polls had Hillary winning by a landslide.
The polls had Kamala pulling away in the final days.
DON'T. BELIEVE. THE. POLLS.
GET. YOUR. ASSES. OUT. AND. VOTE. BLUE. TO. SAVE. DEMOCRACY.
Agreed.
You should be ashamed of yourself @ColtMcCoy
I’m absolutely disgusted @ColtMcCoy would associate our brand as longhorns with a serial sexual abuser. Take Faith & Family out of your bio, boy.

It’s the last week of early voting, Texas.

Vote like your children’s lives still depend on it.
Because they do.

A Texas Democrat from the Austin area wins a hotly contested statewide primary, then runs in an open seat race against a deeply flawed Republican millionaire opponent who runs one of the worst campaigns in modern history.
The race becomes extraordinarily negative, and sets national records for spending.
The Democrat wins by 2.5 points. Texas flips blue.
The year is 1990.
