While some may try to write this off as just how politics works now, ballot-stacking should have no place in our electoral process. Run and win on your merits: your views, your policy ideas, and your accomplishments. By contrast, recruiting candidates to manipulate the field and influence voting outcomes is simply wrong. Alaskans deserve the honest truth from Mary and her campaignโwhat has been revealed is a pattern of lies and coverups and a culture of deception that belongs nowhere in our elections or among our elected officials.

If Talarico wins it will be because Paxton was a ruinously flawed candidate who should not have been the nominee.
Complaining about the voters is for losers.

Mary Peltola has no record to run on, so she and DC Democrats decided to cheat.
Mary Peltola has looked Alaskans in the eyes for the past year and a half and lied to them. โ at Alaska, USA

Small scooplet in this story:
Jim Wright, the outgoing Republican chairman of the Texas Railroad Commission, said he did not vote for @bofrench
Wright lost to French in May's GOP runoff. He didn't say if he voted for @Jon_RosenthalTX

LOL, the problem here isn't GWB or @JohnCornyn. Not even close to being the problem.
You were all warned what would happen. You wanted to eat this shit sandwich and try to force the rest of us to eat it, too. You wanted the very worst candidate that you could find. You got him!

I suppose they got so comfortable and arrogant that they thought they could kick out Cornyn and shove in Paxton without any consequences cause Texas is a red state like Arizona was... until it wasn't

๐จ NEWS: A Texas voter says lifelong Republicans in her hometown of Rockport are stopping her in stores to say theyโre voting for Democrats James Talarico, Gina Hinojosa, and Bobby Pulido because theyโre fed up with โthe corruption, the lies.โ This is happening in a state Republicans have dominated for decades.

200 million (and counting) completely WASTED on a candidate who can't even consolidate his own party.

Republican and former Chief Justice of the Texas Supreme Court, Tom Phillips, lays out the many reasons why he is supporting James Talarico. In summary he opines โPaxtonโs longstanding reputation will embarrass Texas in ways our state simply cannot afford. While I, like many Republicans, do not agree with all of Talaricoโs past statements or current positions, I am confident that he would serve this great state with dignity and honor.โ

"I'm hopeful this November will be a wake-up call so we can get back to the business of electing conservative, qualified candidates of good character," said John Huffman, a Republican and the former mayor of the affluent conservative Dallas suburb of Southlake. He said he left the Senate line on his ballot blank when he voted early.
Corruption has particularly animated the crucial Senate battleground of Texas as state Rep. James Talarico (D) pounds Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) with tens of millions of dollars in advertising calling him corrupt. wapo.st/4ikuB8Q
