and I'm only one of a few million here in Texas. Even when things don't go our way at the ballot box we are stronger together.

There are plenty of right-wingers in Austin. Conversely, there are lots of liberal Democrats in other areas of Texas. Obama carried practically all the big urban areas in both 2008 and 2012; he got better than 3 million votes from Texans, both times.

I found this on the Facebook page for "Turning Texas Back2Blue" (credit Shelli Kozberg), but I don't have any information as to whether it is has been made into a poster.
