Cruz won the primary in 2016 with only 43.7% of the vote (lowest showing by a republican in years) .... truth may be he'll need every single Republican vote out there.  I hope he's working on this ... we need the seat.

Can you at least tell the whole story @Right_in_Virginia ?

There were over a dozen candidates on the Texas ballot, and Cruz won nearly every county. Cruz counties are in gold, Trump counties are in blue.

You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.

Calm the hell down.  I pulled the percent from Texas records.  I don't know what story you're telling here ... but the vote totals and percentages from the 2016 primary are in the record books.

I hope the Senator keeps his seat.  I hope he does whatever it takes to make that happen. I hope you're out there helping him.

About 2/3's of Sabine County is National Forest up against the Toledo Bend Reservoir.

Sabine County is okay.

Then relax.  Cruz can phone it in.
Only fools do that.

Cruz is no fool and neither are his followers.

That's what Hillary thought, too.
