I know there's an Aryan Brotherhood element in these parts. This is where the Biden-Harris campaign bus was forced off of Interstate 35 back in 2020. It's a purple county – more bluish purple on the east side of the county where we have Texas State University students and staff, and more reddish purple on the south and western side of the county.

But I've taken the possibility of issues in my town as pretty small.

Hope the presence of the monitors helps our election go smoothly!
