I was looking up more info about it and saw this. It kinda repeats what I was trying to say. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/why-are...lection-cycle/

It's open vs closed primaries. Texas is an open primary state.

Maybe they are thinking that they can vote on the R ballot and help vote the weaker candidate in, then when the general elections come up, it will give the their d candidate a better shot. Can voters in Texas switch parties during the primaries like they can in some other states?

It's not really switching. You can use whichever ballot you want per election cycle. I voted in the Democrat primary during the Clinton/Obama race and had two Obama volunteers show up at my house about a month later. The parties get a list of who voted on their ballot.

I worked the polls yesterday and... it was almost painful for the Democrats. Out of 140 or so votes at my location, 6 were for D's and 3 of them were because "I'm not voting for Trump."

I couldn't tell them Trump wasn't on the ballot but I did have some that told me that they were Democrats but they wanted a Republican ticket. Quite a few actually and I didn't know how to take that.

100 increased by 105% = 205

1000 increased by 15% = 1150

Just an example showing that a "percentage of increase" has nothing to do with overall numbers.

I have a feeling most of those democrat voters showed up just for Beto. Shareblue/mediamatters/David Brock thinks Cruz is vulnerable for some reason so they've had their shills standing on the overpasses in Austin with signs.

The democrats won every primary they were running in!!!

!!!!

That's why we need to get out and Vote. The Liberal Socialist Democrats seem to be quite energized for this Primary Election. They want very badly to turn Texas blue. If that happens we are done. We will be like California very quickly.
This looks real bad.

How do you get more than 100%? 105% of what?

I usually vote early, but I wasn't even aware the election was coming, except for seeing a few signs here and there. It's like the mainstream media has been keeping it on the down low.

I believe the 105% is an increase over 2014's primary.

Just a primary guys, nothing is turning blue --------- November is for that.

All the democrats need is to turn over our voter ID laws. If only half of their voters were allowed to cast two ballots they'd flip Texas.
