GOP Pac To Target Conservative Hispanic Democrats In The Texas House

Texas GOP Pac plans to woo Hispanics in districts held by Conservative Democrats.

Yesterday it was announced that the Associated Republicans of Texas Pac would be targeting Conservative Democrats House seats for flipping. These so-called Conservative Democrats have been in office for a long time and held on to their seats by pandering to Republicans.

According to a recent ranking from the Texas Tribune, these Democrats are among some of the least liberal in the Texas House.

The seats they’re targeting include House Districts 34, 41, 74, 80, and 144. Abel Herrero has announced his retirement so HD34 will be up for grabs.

That they’re better than Republicans at providing the means for social mobility than the Texas RepParty (better education, lower tuition) and that Democrats are better at safeguarding rural healthcare than the Party of Greed and Corruption..
