Authoritarian MAGA candidates backed by extremists groups True Texas Project, Patriot Mobile PAC, and other hate-baiting agents fell on their faces this weekend. In race after race, these groups launched divisive attacks designed to divide communities against each other – and Texans promptly voted them out. Saturday’s election results are as good an indication as any that Texas is tiring of MAGA extremism. Lone Star Project backed smart, commonsense, community-oriented candidates, and the results speak for themselves.
Maybe the best example is the Tarrant County City of Mansfield where incumbent mayor Michael Evans smoked his opponent who was heavily financed by out-of-town MAGA agitators. Mayor Evans focused on unity, public service, and the mainstream policies that help everyone in a diverse community. Mainstream common sense leadership beats MAGA hate and extremism.
