A few last pre-election tidbits

The Texas GOP is determined to use immigration bullshit as a hammer to "turn Texas red" in border counties. The Trib and ProPublica have the details from Val Verde County (Del Rio). The Observer looks at larger border politics battles in Cameron County. Isn't that the base of TDP head Gilberto Hinojosa? It also looks Hudspeth County, outside of elections, where the GOP incumbent is pushing back on some nuttery but not all, and other border-county sheriffs.

Even Danny Goeb refudiates Lara Trump and her lies that Tex-ass voting machines are flipping votes.

A&M International student who is relatively uninvolved in local politics (and not a US citizen anyway) gets butt-hurt that Webb County wouldn't make the university a voting site.

T for Texas and T for trans? Anti-trans ads look like Havana Ted Cruz's preferred path to victory. And yes, per the Observer, he's likely to win.
