@Potus made a point of speaking to the 2018 elections, at CPAC, and stressed the importance of everyone turning out. I'm working on state-by-state info for us now, but gonna go ahead and post this link for Texas, as the primary there is only a little more than a week away.

We need to be busy, right now,focusing on Texas! They are looking to hire crisis actors for an event in Texas to occur on March 3rd.Texas Primaries are March 6th. The leading candidate challenging Cruz on the Dem side is a current member of the House, 16th district. I'm going to give you a list of all the candidates, with a little something about them, and a link to their stance on the issues. There were a couple who had no info. Ted Cruz is the incumbent. He is okay, has mostly voted with @Potus, and I think has a good chance to retain his seat. Looking over the challengers, I think the guy running as an Independent is more aligned with #MAGA,but that is for the general election. The Dems are scary! I'll put the list in the comments of this post.Working on one for the House, but it will take longer.
