Fort Worth area Republicans got spanked in local elections while some of the largest ISD bond packages passed around Texas

Conservative candidates supported by County GOP Chairs French and West got smacked even in the DFW suburbs where they’ve made big gains in recent cycles; huge school bonds like the $2.3 billion Celina ISD ballot measure got more than 70% support

FORT WORTH – Of the bond propositions, a major urban mayoral race, and other municipal elections across Texas that took place over the weekend, the talk of the state and country was Tarrant County where the local GOP got spanked.

Of the 26 candidates endorsed by the party, 11 won, which included unopposed incumbents and races featuring clear frontrunners against nominal candidates, and only one is headed to a run-off.

Among their targets were races in the county’s three largest cities – Arlington, Fort Worth, and Mansfield – which they all lost.
