Texas primary: The good, the really good, and the warning....The first and most important lesson is that Texas should never be a close call for Republicans. if Democrats were hoping the primary results and voter turnout would be a harbinger of increased viability in the Lone Star state up and down the ballot, they should be thoroughly disappointed. To be clear, Democrats did outperform their showing in recent years, and clearly, their high level of engagement will hurt Republicans in states that are genuinely more competitive. But as Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, taunted his general election opponent, “If you’re gonna run in Texas, ya can’t be a liberal man.†Texas ain’t going anywhere into the blue column any time soon, and there are no signs that Ted Cruz is vulnerable or that House seats could flip.....
Here are six important observations from last night:
1. Ted Cruz had an excellent night .........
2. Beto O’Rourke is the new Wendy Davis.....
3. Overall turnout is up for Democrats, but not enough to win in Texas......
4. Chip Roy wins!.........
5. Democrat voters bucked the establishment....
6. Democrats have an uphill battle to flip House seats in Texas.......
