GOP looks to flip historically Democratic South Texas in 2022

House Republicans are targeting the Rio Grande Valley in 2022, identifying South Texas as a fertile electoral crescent after then-President Donald Trump supercharged GOP turnout last year and transformed the traditional Democratic stronghold into a competitive battleground.

Very possible.

With two new seats given to Texas, the lege can creatively redistrict the seats to maximize GOP chances.

It should because 2024 and 2028 are looking like blue invasions into GOP strongholds in Texas.

Yes, and people in Hell are looking for ice water, too.

It is the affect of redrawing districts that favor republicans that they did back in 2010. It has paying off for them. Still the major cities mostly remain democrat. I believe even the state capital has a democrat mayor and is where the republican governor resides. I guess that why they call it Austin Weird.
Some cases about how they redrew the districts actually made it to the Supreme Court and the state was accused of gerrymandering in 2018 and the district maps were found unconstitutional. Well know the court seems to be in republican favor so let the games begin again.

After the way Big Left has treated both Texas and Florida, they will be coming out redder than ever.

The border counties have had more than their fill of illegals and the cartels.

Hispanics and blacks are ever so slowly waking up the the fact that democrats are the party of uber-rich snob assholes, who couldn't care less about them.
