Beto will win if Tarrant County turns blue. I know the star telegram released in article about how state politicians like Ted Cruz has shown very little support or interest in making sure money is allocated to the Fort Worth TRV flood control project and mention Cruz has secured a lot of money for his home base of Houston for its flood control from the federal government. The mayor of Fort Worth has also showed her frustration with why the TRV has been shutout of the federal budget the next couple years despite congress approving funding. It’s a lot of people upset about this current administration.

From what I've been hearing the last decade:

"Texas goes as Tarrant (County) goes..."

For some reason I've been reading a lot of articles from white Evangelical Republican women in the DFW area that are voting for the first Democrat in their lifetime in Beto O'Rourke. Is this the case of the AL Senate where AL conservative housewives secretly voted for Doug Jones because they didn't want a serial molester of young girls (Roy Moore) voted in? In this case many women that like Beto's ideas but are scared of their husbands beating them or outing them in church?

It is like you only read what you want you want.

Two polls referenced in the article released at the same time. One shows Beto up by two and one shows Cruz up by nine. Both cannot be right and both are among likely voters.

It is stupid sentiments like this that are furthering the divide in the country. Have you every stopped to think women can have a brain and think for themselves?

The main problem for Democrats in Tarrant county is that its home to the most conservative suburbs in DFW. Keller, Southlake, and Colleyville are all more conservative than Plano, Frisco, and Irving.
