"Texas voters oppose closing primaries, and a strong majority oppose losing the ability to choose which party's primary they would like to participate in," said veteran GOP pollster Chris Perkins
The overwhelming
majority of Texans polled in a new survey say that not only do they support the
current open primary system, but they also adamantly oppose a move to take away
their freedom to choose which party’s primary to participate in on the day they
go to their voting location.
News of

teamed up with AG Ken Paxton against Secretary of State Jane Nelson in

The MAGA populist idea for "Trump Accounts" has immediate support from Democrats like Sen. Cory Booker. But some Texas conservatives blasted it as “socialism,” with one saying “Ted Cruz would have blown a gasket at Obama Accounts"
Echoing
President Donald Trump, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick on Wednesday announced
one of his top legislative priorities in the 2027 session would be the creation
of taxpayer-funded investment accounts for newborns. It’s an idea that drew
immediate backlash from some on the right, who didn’t hesitate to say that such
a proposal amounts to a full embrace of “socialism” and “collectivism”
by a top Texas Republican leader.
Trump
unveiled his proposal for “Trump Accounts” in DC with the backing of Sen. Ted
Cruz, R-Ted Cruz, and Sen. Cory Booker, a Democrat from New Jersey. Austin
tech leader Michael Dell said that he and his wife’s foundation would chip
in more than $6 billion to help fund the accounts at the national level.
Of course,
Patrick couldn’t resist getting in on the action.
