A couple days ago I got an email from one of the people I came to know after I moved to the Dallas Fort Worth zone of Texas.
Betty Jennety.
Betty's email was amusing...
"Howdy D, it's been awhile since I've talked to you. But, Tuesday's election results brought you to the forefront of my mind for the first time in awhile. When I first met you, and asked you what caused you to move to Texas, you told me it was part of a Clinton era program to move progressive liberal sorts to Texas to try and add a helpful voice to the ongoing dialogue. Is that why you started that blog and went after so many things in DFW, like the Trinity River Vision, the Barnett Shale drilling, I forget what all? And now, after so many years, you have helped flip Texas blue? I find this a bit hard to believe."
To which I replied, "So do I."
But then again, for the past many months I have been posting a lot of political type postings on Facebook. Example above.
Some of those have had share numbers in the thousands. It is not possible to track the grand total because some don't click the 'share' option, but instead just copy the image and then post it on their Facebook feed.
Yeah, I'm sure that's it. All my anti-MAGA, anti-Trump postings influenced a lot of Texans to vote BLUE.
