2. It's Texas. Of course he won.

There was never a chance he wasn’t going to win.

3. He's so ugly

Every election season you see threads on here about the turd losing, then somehow he pulls through.

I'm so sick of these rural voters and their ignorance.

[Coexist]

6. Yeah, Texas gonna freaking Texas, like Florida gonna Florida

Just how it happens

7. I don't know if I am feeling more contempt for fellow Americans or more fear...

I really wish I hadn't stayed up to watch any of this.

22. Me, too

Allread might not be a white guy from a long-established white Texas family, but in my opinion he came from a Texas tradition of large-than-life personalities that used to dominate Texas politics a couple of generations ago. We used to have a lot of those—in both parties (IMO Ann Richards was one of the last). I had thought that there were still enough Texas voters still out there who would respond to that to and give him the edge over do-nothing Cruz.

9. They are still fighting the civil war

If they had a vote for succession they would win.

10. That sucks but it's expected

[Bayard]

11. Crap

Crap crap crap. I was really hoping Allread was going to kick Cruz out.

[Vogon_Glory]

24. Me, too. I thought he had sufficient momentum. n/t

12. This really is sad for me--so sad. And bad for the USA.

[Susan Calvin]

13. Shit. nt

[Lonestarblue]

15. The state passed a law to take over Harris County so they could make sure Cruz would win.

Abbott, Paxton, and the Republican Party are just as corrupt as Trump.

[True Dough]

16. Kudos to Colin Allred

for giving it all that he had. Wish he'd pulled it off, but it was a long shot.

[NCDem47]

17. Democrats are Charlie Brown.

Lucy are majority of Texas voters

The football, the elusive statewide win.

[mwmisses4289]

18. Well, damn.

I really thought Allred had a good chance. I voted Allred, can't stand Cruz.

[Tickle]

19. I really thought Cruz was

going down 👇

[WA-03 Democrat]

20. FUCK!!

Man I thought Alfred had it

[dflprincess]

21. If I were going to suspect an election was "rigged"

this would be the one.

I have no evidence, just a sense of what a low life creep Cruz is and he would stoop to anything.

[LeftInTX]

25. No. It's Texas. Full of MAGATS

I think Cruz got what? 51%?

[Passages]

23. Fuck him. Disgusting man.

[PatSeg]

26. Damn

These republicans are like the monster who won't die in a horror film.

[Groundhawg]

27. shit
