This could be the difference in Texas...

Young voters may be the key to flipping Texas, team. There are nearly three million 18- to 24-year-olds in Texas. These potential voters hold the key to flipping Texas—but historically have not turned out in large numbers. But new data show young voters, in Texas and across the nation, are re…

Abortion. Is. On. The. Ballot. In. Texas.

Abortion could be the issue that unseats Greg Abbott, friend. New polling shows six in ten Texans believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases—and only one in ten say abortion should be banned in all cases.  Yet Texas Gov. Greg Abbott continues to stand by Texas’s extreme anti-aborti…
