White Devil Beto LOSES to Abbott in Uvalde
La-hoo-sa-her.
The evil menace known as Beto was soundly defeated by Greg Abbott in Uvalde County, according to results from Tuesday’s election in the race for Governor of Texas.
I guess campaigning on dead kids to circumvent the Bill of Rights isn’t as compelling to normal people as Democrats thought.
AUSTIN — More than five months after the deadliest school shooting in Texas history, Uvalde County voted to reelect Gov. Greg Abbott, despite months of anger at the two-term governor for what many in Uvalde saw as one of the key figures in law enforcement’s response to the mass shooting.
Abbott won a third term as governor Tuesday, beating Democratic challenger Beto O’Rourke. With all 14 Uvalde precincts reporting, Abbott unofficially received 60.27% of the vote versus 31.55% for O’Rourke. Abbott carried the county, which is still reeling from the Robb Elementary School mass shooting where 21 people were killed.
Less than 1/3rd is pretty bad.
But O’Rourke made the mass shooting — the sixth in Abbott’s tenure — one of the central issues of his campaign. A day after the May 24 shooting, O’Rourke interrupted an Abbott press conference at Uvalde High School and yelled, “This is on you.”
Beto is a sick freak.
Gun control advocates pressed Abbott to take action to stop mass shootings weeks after Uvalde. Advocates blamed him for not calling a special session after the Uvalde shootings and for saying he can’t raise the minimum age for buying an assault weapon from 18 to 21 because it would not survive legal challenges and violates the Second Amendment.
Abbott was also criticized for not canceling a campaign fundraiser in Huntsville the day of the shooting and instead spent nearly three hours at a private home in East Texas. Abbott initially said that the stop was brief and to let people know he could not stay. But campaign finance reports and flight tracking data revealed that he spent about three hours in the town.
I guess people were expecting Abbott to roll into the school and stop the shooter himself?
Given how the police stood down over an hour, I suppose it’s possible Abbott could have personally stopped the shooter before police if he would have had a plane at the ready.
Is this a solution to mass shootings in Texas—a heavily armed Governor Abbott with a Cessna on standby, just in case a mass shooting breaks out?
This kind of governance would have saved lives more lives in Uvalde than gun registration or banning semi-autos.
Only liberal white women and men that act like liberal white women are anti-gun.
Great Article. We remember Texans going to high school and most every truck had a gun in the window with no mass shootings. We had a family that expected certain behavior and all of us understood that. What happened in Uvalde has lots of blame to go around. IMO I think we should do away with a school district law enforcement. The budget should provide for at least one officer for each campus for all the lower grades and for the HS officer numbers should be based on how big the campus is and how many people --the Sherriff could provide these officers and charge the school for their salary and maybe even make that a rotating position so more than 1 officer knows the kids---But parents need to stand up and be parents and know what their kids are doing. Never has a parent of one of these mass shooters got on tv and said anything other than "my kid is a good kid" --They don't just wake up one day and become something different than "a good kid" or most parents would be at a dr today looking for answers> IMO
