Interesting predictions and graphic. Can't say I know enough about any of the counties to comment other than Hidalgo County in Texas. I get the feeling the Dems/Biden have completely underestimated Hispanic voters.

I totally agree regarding Hispanics, though plenty of noise has been made about how dems are alienating them in every possible way.

DuPage County is my IL home county, so I'm quite familiar with that one. Of course there's no ignoring Maricopa here in AZ. Many are waiting for DuPage to reverse the blue, about 35 years ago, it was considered the most Republican country in US. My how things have changed.

Gonzales’ paid blogger anointed Flores, the first Latina Republican to win a House seat in Texas, “Miss Frijoles 2022”:
Who doesn’t love frijoles? But I digress. This can’t be real, can it? Um … yes it is, NBC News’ Marc Caputo reported (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-election/miss-frijoles-attack-roils-latino-heavy-congressional-race-texas-rcna38787) this morning:


A Texas blogger paid by Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez’s campaign is attacking Republican opponent Rep. Mayra Flores as “Miss Frijoles” and a “cotton-pickin’ liar,” prompting a wave of denunciations by fellow Democrats.

The language first surfaced three days after Gonzalez’s campaign wrote a $1,200 check to The McHale Report blog June 24 for “advertising services,” according to the Democrat’s Federal Election Commission finance report.

But the blog, which has called Flores “Miss Frijoles” 21 times since then, has not published any Gonzalez ads.

This is going to be interesting. Mexicans are far-less "woke" and/or thin-skinned than other minorities/leftwingnuts. They don't really react to racial crap. Especially when they're usually starting it :laugh:

Straight up, they've always made what would be considered racial slurs at me and I fire back in kind. Nobody really gives a shit because we know it's in fun. Yes, it can get ugly occasionally. That usually requires for-real racists.

We'll see how it plays out with politicians and the MSM/leftoids telling Hispanics what they are supposed to cry about.
