Most here recognize your expertise on Texas politics and appreciate your posts..don't listen to the few who can't be civil when they disagree..when they act like that their opinions don't matter.

@mystery-ak If one subtracts the difference in the numbers in 2014, we had 804,547 votes more.
The difference in numbers in 2018, is 505,875 in our favor; we are down
300,000 from 2014. We are not gaining, we are losing our advantage. That is reality. To play the game of politics and win, one must know the rules. Election numbers mean something, every number is a vote, a real person.
It is now recorded on every county voter list, which party primary the voter chose. One can go back and see how that voter voted, which party, in the 2014 primary. Did that voter switch parties? It is also recorded if this was the first primary in which that voter voted as there will be no record of this voter in past primaries. County chairmen/parties will be evaluating their voter list. Every election is a county election; that is the grassroots of elections.
