First time in 139 years that a Republican has won this district, which encompasses a huge swath of south west Texas.

Yippee!,

I hope it's the first few droplets of a red tsunami!

For those that do not know, San Antonio I'd predominately Hispanic now, there is a big military presence there, but this is a huge win for Republicans!

What?? No recounts and/or no suddenly found ballots in favor of the Democrat candidate? How refreshing!

Now?

Hell, when I was there 32 years ago you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting one.

Given the seat is vacant because the prior (D) holder was just convicted of federal corruption charges the switch from (D) to (R) is not that surprising.

Just ignore the propaganda coming from the Left, keep your focus, boldly vote for constitutional candidates and encourage others to do the same. This will all work out under president Trump.
