  2. He also had some votes while being the rep from El Paso that were problematic for a statewide race and Cruz was able to call him out on them. When I saw those I knew he had no shot. Just too far to the left for Texas then and even now. I don't remember the exact details but when I saw his record I was like "yeah, that's going to be a problem."
  3. And they are going to have to keep lowering that number until either people stop moving here or the state makes more than one public university that's worth a crap. Texas is the 800-pound gorilla for public options, and there are no peers in state with the same prestige (for public universities).

  5. https://www.ketv.com/article/nebraska-republicans-push-for-winner-take-all/62288604 Just an FYI on how this works - apparently the governor needs the state legislature (Nebraska is unicameral) to approve a special session and they'd have to do this by the end of September. There are a couple of Republican senators that represent Omaha and they're the holdouts. Voting to essentially disenfranchise their constituents would be a political death sentence so it's a pretty hard sell to get these guys to switch.
