Is Dallas getting out of control by the left? Login/Join 
Partial dichotomy

Given recent news about the DART train, asking a felon to be on the board to decide chief of police, the overall drop in moral and low numbers of the Dallas police force...are liberals taking control of Dallas? Of course Texas is conservative, but are the cities going the other way in Texas?

Dallas has been a liberal bastion for many many years.

Just like every other urban core major city around the country.

The City of Chicago has managed to thoroughly destroy the great State of Illinois.

The City of St. Louis is attempting to do the same to Missouri through a group called "Together We're Better" attempting to merge the City and County which would have the same effect. The new City/County would be overwhelmingly liberal and would dominate State politics.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

"The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth."

Look at the state's national election results by county for the last several decades. Not only are all the largest cities blue, but practically the entire Rio Grande border. This really started taking hold in the eighties.

Edited to add a better map.

I often wonder what it would look like sans voter fraud.

I see. I wasn't aware this was a long term condition. A shame to see and with those situations I mentioned above, it'll probably only get worse.

Yeah. I have the misfortune to live in the only county in the north half of Texas that was blue. It disgusts me.

I'm lucky to be about a mile north of the Harris county line, so solid Red here.

The map doesnt tell a fair story, while Harris county is blue per presidential election votes, it is governed and run a Republican judge(basically the mayor of harris county) and most county wide elections go red. While Houston may be fucked up and in debt, fire department retirement funds screwed, and all the usual democrat problems the county is in great shape.
