Texas is interesting this cycle; Im curious after all is said-and-done if this helps or hurts. First time since 1994 a Democrat is a legit contender for governor. Data centers are gonna have a rough go of it if Hinojosa wins Early voting already has long lines in a state that barely votes. Probably more Paxton/Talarico than the governor race though.
