Texas Primary Sets Up Beto-Abbott Governor’s Race
2 Mar 2022
CLAY: The Texas primaries for Republicans and Democrats happened yesterday, first primary of the 2022 calendar year, and we are officially lined up for Greg Abbott against Beto. There are gonna be some runoffs in other different races, and that’s gonna be fascinating to look as those numbers come out and we see how much of a continued shift the Hispanic vote has moved in the direction of Republicans.
Because some of the early turnout numbers I saw from down particularly south along the border in Texas, Republicans were continuing to make monster gains. Remember that was one of the areas that flipped the most in the 2020 calendar election in terms of from Hillary Clinton in ’16 to Donald Trump in ’20. Pretty extraordinary to see there.
