The Texas Autopsy: What Went Wrong for Democrats and Right for Republicans?
Now that the dust has mostly settled in Texas, it’s time for the soul-searching. Democrats thought they were in strong position to finally win a statewide office, even possibly taking the Texas House. Not only did that not happen, in most races it wasn’t even close. While they still see progress, party leaders are already trying to map out a new game plan for 2022. At the same time, Republicans also turned out en masse, keeping Texas solidly red. And they think their strong ground game and face-to-face contact worked beautifully. In this episode of Y’all-itics, the Jasons perform a post-election autopsy on politics in Texas.
