Donald Trump wins Texas’ 40 electoral votes
The win continues the state’s streak of going red in every presidential election since it went for Jimmy Carter in 1976.
Summary
Texas voters awarded Donald Trump the state’s 40 electoral votes, continuing its long-standing Republican streak since 1976. Gov. Greg Abbott celebrated the win, praising Trump as the candidate Texans trust to address issues like inflation and border security.
Texas, while not considered a swing state, has seen Democrats attempting to make inroads by mobilizing younger, diverse voters and appealing to moderates. However, Republicans have downplayed Democratic progress, pointing to recent substantial losses by high-profile Democratic candidates like Wendy Davis and Beto O'Rourke.
What the fuck is wrong with you people? The vast majority of people here did the right thing and were repressed by gerrymandering and other shithole tactics.
Show some class and comradery, get mad at the people that did this and stop generalizing the people that live here because it's easy. People here are dying due to the bullshit Republicans have pulled. Be a better person and help.
6.2 million people did the wrong fucking thing, 4.6 million did the right thing. i don't know where you're pulling this "vast majority are angels" bullshit from
A lot of them thinking that Trump isn't meant to be taken literally, thus will look away at a lot of things.
I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed.
Well, Texas, enjoy what you get. Which is apparently just a lot of dead mothers.
I mean, all the primary city centers are blue. It's the fucking idiot rednecks that get their news through Fox or Facebook that voted red. If they even had Internet at all.
It’s unsurprising, but interesting
Don't forget dead young and old from their grid!
They actually recently (within the last few months) agreed to join a larger grid. So that should be a bit less of a problem this year. It is Texas though, so there's always the chance they turn around and shoot themselves in the foot.
Fuck you Texas.
I did the best I could…
We can give them back to Mexico now right?
This is expected, but nonetheless boycott Texas. Nazi pieces of shit.
If Trump wins every state will be Texas
Too much hate. Every cycle we can get closer. Don't make Texas feel left out.
Shithole state
Is there still a chance of getting rid of that ugly pile of Ted Cruz?
Nope. Somehow that scumbag coward piece of shit wins again.
LoL! You think I would be AGAINST a man who ran away while my Neighbors died?
-Pro Life Republicans who are Upset that Government DOESNT work!

They’re probably trying to keep information consolidated and easy to parse.
