Is this poll real? How could Atlanta be better than Dallas? I dont see it. We have the Cowboys, Fort Worth, we used to have the best job growth in the country by taking jobs from California but now we also have a startup scene. We have Frisco which is the best place to live in the whole USA according to the tabloids. we have an amazing uptown and Klyde Warren park. I cant imagine how Atlanta could possibly be better. Please explain.
Typical Texan, can't understand why everyone doesn't love everything Texan. Some people will prefer other places for various reasons. Not everyone thinks DFW and Texas in general is the land of paradise for everything. DFW has many advantages over Atlanta but it's not absolute or given that it's just a better place. Can't believe you actually had the audacity to use Frisco and the Cowboys as a reason why it's better though lol.

Yeah. DFW or Atlanta, it really comes down to preference.
Thats a subjective question .Ive already said many why I personally think if its an urban experience you want,out of these cities mentioned,its hands down Atlanta. That doesnt change whether its PHX or DAL Taking into consideration the entire metro ,its a draw or it comes down to personal preferences.
Its clear you know little about Atlanta based on your comments but if you visit the city of Atlanta ,you will see its so much more to do and its more of a complete city than Dallas although Dallas is doing a lot to its core as well
I wouldn't say Atlanta is "a more complete" city than Dallas. Atlanta lacks in some areas. I would say in general living in the core of Atlanta is a little bit more rewarding than living in the core of Atlanta, but Dallas in general is more cohesive, has better suburbs and infrastructure.

I'm not sure why you would ask this, the "they" who votes in the majority to continue such a broken system. I think that they you know what I meant.
"They" isnt the whole state but you characterized it as such. Texas is much more culturally complex than that. If you included Georgia with North Carolina, Mississippi, and Alabama, you would have a population and size similar to Texas as well as a similar political make up.
Population sizes are close:
Texas: 29,360,759
GA/NC/AL/MS: 29,199,149
Youd have 4 democratic voting populous metro areas:
DFW
Houston
Austin
San Antonio
El Paso
vs.
Atlanta
Charlotte
Raleigh/Durham
Greensboro
Birmingham
Texas has similar square mileage to those states:
Texas: 268,579
GA/NC/AL/MS: 224,920
Youd have a similar proportion of blue and red votes (Im excluding 3rd parties since none garnered much support in any of these states):
Texas: 52.6% Trump and 47.4% Biden
GA/NC/AL/MS: 53.1% Trump and 46.9% Biden.
I didnt pull this out of my rear end, I do it to illustrate a point. Just as North Carolina and Mississippi are culturally different, so is East, West, South, and North Texas. The Texas you speak of that is full of hardcore libertarians that despise any sort of regulation may fly in some parts of the state, but our major metro areas arent like that and voting patterns reflect that.
Texas is a complex place. Reducing it to a mindset that can be typed in three sentences is ridiculous. Its ever bit as ridiculous as trying to say the south is one mindset monolith.
