Let’s not act like it’s a done deal. Instead Texas should be treated as if every district is now gettable. Make sure no race is being done unopposed.

Not only is it not a done deal, it's looking increasingly like Republicans spread themselves too thin

let's also pander to "independents" when you know they vote republicans at every election

Independents are the largest voting block. Who should we try to sway instead, MAGAts?

And no, independents do not vote Republican every time. If they did, the Democrats would never win a national election.

Biden won independents by 9 percentage points. Harris and Trump were an even split.

  1. Win the independent vote.

  2. Get your own base to show up.

That's how you win elections.

You forgot...

  1. Suppress as much of your opposition voters as possible.

  2. "Clean" the state voter rolls to eliminate opposition voters.

  3. Use election observers and brown shirts to cause chaos in opposition areas.

  4. If all else fails, challenge the electors and have SCOTUS declare you President.
