Dallas County remains only blue county in DFW, Austin gained 2 suburban counties (Houston: moving to, suburbs)

Things may still change, but seems like these results will sustain. In Austin metro, Hays and Williamson County flipped blue. In HOU, Fort Bend remained blue. Fort Worth is still the sole urban red county and DFW has no blue suburban counties. If Texas will ever go blue, DFW’s suburbs will eventually have to flip. Houston and Austin’s suburbs alone aren’t enough to flip Texas. Ands Fort Worth will also have to flip.

Pretty much....

Austin is pretty much California 2.0 probably even more now that Tesla is moving there.

When did Tesla announce an Austin move? From what I’ve seen, they only announced tha giga Factory. Maybe if Biden finishes the win off they will move though.

Apparently Zapata, Jim Wells, and Frio went red??? Big if true.

Yeah. But Brazoria county is gaining blue momentum which was also unexpected considering Lake Jackson is there. But it’s South Houston and Pearland making thee shift.

Thats what I meant. Their giga factory being built there, have to expect management and various personnel moving to Austin.

[As Above So Below...]

Collin went from 38.9% for Hillary to 46.5% for Biden.

Tarrant went from 43.1% to 49.1%

Denton went from 37.1% to 45.1%

Fort Bend went from 51.4% to 55.4%.

Dallas went from 60.7% to 64.9%

Harris went from 53.9% to 55.8%

Montgomery went from 22.4% to 27.4%

Travis went from 65.7% to 71.4%

Hays went from 46.0% to 54.4%

Williamson went from 41.5% to 49.5%

The biggest shifts from right to left were in DFW and Austin as opposed to Houston.

The biggest reason Texas didnt move closer to the center was really because of Hispanics in South Texas whom Trump did very well with.

Biggest reason? What? Tarrant County isn’t even a suburban county. It’s an URBAN county that stayed red. That’s your biggest reason when an urban county remains Republican, no expectations to win the state. DFW is the biggest reason, the low hispanic turn out south Texas second.

Youre surprisingly passionate about something that can be statistically shown. Almost like you opened this thread to highlight differences instead of looking at the details.

And there wasnt low turn out in South Texas relative to 2016. Trump was just able to sway a lot of Hispanics.

Before a true blue shift happens, Fort Worth will have to be on board before you can even begin to factor Hispanics in south Texas.
