Yes I am aware that there is definitely a trend of Texas growing more left from 2008-2020 thanks to the influx of tech companies and their woke employees in the Austin and Dallas suburbs.
However right now in the current political environment, Hispanics in the Rio Grande Valley are swinging right and thankfully Biden is absolutely hated in Texas by independents and Republicans.
Abbott will certainly win this year by a 10+pt margin.
2026 is the next governor election and the Democrats don't currently have a bench in Texas. Will they run Beto again?
Based on the current trends it looks like the earliest Texas may ever go blue is in 2030 or later.
If the evil of Blue Texas ever comes to pass I will be moving to Florida which is overall politically trending to the right thanks to DeSantis.
All the data shows that aint happening. If anything, its moving to the right. There was a mild downward trend in 2016, but 2020 moved more to the right, and recent elections have been moving significantly to the right. And there has been data now showing that the newcomers to the state are more likely to be Republican than the natives.
