Via Politico:
Gavin
Newsom will headline a rally in Texas on Saturday alongside Lone Star state
House members and dignitaries — an event designed as an aggressive show of
force in the wake of California Democrats’ resounding gerrymander victory on
Tuesday.
Newsom, a
likely 2028 presidential candidate, also returned $3 million from his ballot
measure account to the House Majority PAC, the flagship Democratic-aligned
super PAC and a partner in California’s Proposition 50, for the committee to
help fund redistricting efforts in other states.

Raw politics: The team around former Speaker Dennis Bonnen is no match for Patrick and Blakemore; the results in SD9 also seem to indicate a serious enthusiasm gap with Democrats much more motivated in the suburbs even when their candidate isn’t well-funded
If Sands
doesn’t reassess everything they’ve been doing in Texas at this point, many
political professionals will think they just can’t be helped.
That was
much of the chatter tonight as the election results started to roll in after 7pm.
Despite
millions of dollars spent, the company came nowhere close to passing casino gaming
two regular sessions ago, didn’t even get an effort at the Texas Capitol
this year, and tonight their candidate came in third place behind a Democrat
and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick’s candidate in the race to succeed former Sen. Kelly
Hancock in the Texas Senate.
Let’s get
real: Whether you like them or not, the folks in the orbit of former Speaker Dennis
Bonnen including consultant Mitch Carney and Bonnen’s former Chief Gavin
Massingill are just no match for Patrick and GOP powerhouse consultant Allen
Blakemore.

Despite conservative news ecosystems, little support among registered Texans for Trump policies and support for statewide GOP officeholders has dropped
Polls are like crack cocaine for
political junkies as we seek to divine every shift and
pop in public mood and perception. Polling is
obviously increasingly difficult, but the Texas Politics Project
at the University of Texas has published
consistently for 15 years and they continue to be largely successful in
capturing the public mood.
Having said that, the poll just released
is an eye opener on multiple levels and if the trends they have captured stay
in place through the next year, this upcoming midterm election suggests some
serious changes are possible.
One of the best things about this poll is
that they ask many of the same questions year after year and provide not only
the answer to this year’s question but to every previous year so that you can
watch the ebb and flow of popular sentiment on a number of
issues.
Before getting into some of the results
of the poll, let’s note how quickly and dramatically the public’s news
consumption has changed.
