Anyone following Beto?

Last edited Wed Jun 24, 2020, 07:23 PM - Edit history (1)

Got my first e-mail from him today.

Does he have a better chance against Cornyn than he did against Cruz? He's certainly got more visibility and name recognition because he ran last time.

What's the scoop?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Update: Clearly I did not read my letter closely. The two Democratic Senate contenders are Hegar and West in a runoff and Beto is not running.

The letter does NOT say this. It talks up Beto, it talks up flipping Cornyn's Senate seat.

We shall see.

He's doing a lot for voter turn-out but he's not running against Cornyn.

He's working on a Vote Blue campaign in Texas. Doing voter registration etc.

I would love for him to take Toxic Ted out in 2024!
