Glad you asked for my opinion. I bubbled yes on 64.49% of my RPT scantron (if I had enough time to finish it and not counting blanks) and supported 10 out of the 15 priorities but only selected my top eight. I agree with 47.4% of these TDP resolutions (don't know enough about voting systems) and would need to read the details of the priorities before evaluating.
I'm no expert on it, but my assumption is the Dems want to push TX towards the Alaska model of voting. Daniel Horowitz from The Blaze said in 2024:
"Last decade, [Democrats] used clever campaigning and substantial funding to abolish primaries in Alaska, creating a jungle primary system with ranked-choice voting. This system essentially fosters a "no labels" dynamic, allowing covert Democrats, with the help of subversive establishment Republicans, to block conservatives from winning closed partisan primaries and then use a convoluted formula to defeat them in a ranked-choice general election ballot."
reading this list reminded me why I'm a Republican! 😂
• Condemning Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows? Hey, I'm a real Republican. THAT'S my job!!! ;)
