Im not commenting on him personally, and Im sure hes a decent man. However, some of his ideas are downright crazy. Hes almost Marjorie Taylor Green level crazy. Id almost rather Paxton stay there even though hes a crook.

This is a very slanted source, but the general things that he has said seem to be accurate to the best of my recollection:

Yeah. It’s kind of easy to just hold a mirror up to his supporters and stay silent. Every single one of those things he’s said and done are factual. If it’s interpreted as a positive, that’s a clear sign of delusion.

That sums it up, but you'll be criticized for the source without anyone bothering to verify any of it. An internet search will show that a lot of those things were even reported on fox news.

Both of them are two terrible human beings. Hateful, corrupt, and ignorant as hell.

Well, noted in my post is the wording "post". So the place would be here on this C-D page in this thread. As far as timing goes it'll be at your leisure.

By default a reply would suffice then.

Just wanted to point out that Tyler is very diverse, and has a very active Jewish and Islamic presence alongside a very active interfaith group. Just wanted to clarify that.

Add Gerrymandering to reduce the impact of those votes. Because racism.

Because politics.
The democrats made Texas a one party state for over a century and did the same gerrymandering, so turnabout is fair play.
Race is the most tired and disingenuous card to try to use.
Democrats are scared that the Mexican-American population sentiment is trending away from their liberal plantation politics.
