One quick correction. The Lieutenant governor derives no power from the constitution. all of his power comes from rules adopted by the Senate which is how David Dewhurst was quietly removed from the chair for the last four weeks of the 2009 session

I am 100% MAGA, but even Trumps endorsements do not sway me. I look for the groups and PACs that endorse, grassroots vs establishment. This vote would be a no brainer.

I just want to know who that Patrick Wamhoff character really is. I heard he was NSA.

wow, I am sorry to see you suffer from TDS so badly. NOBODY forced your family to take the vaxx. DONALD TRUMP DID NOT MANDATE IT. He did what he should have and left it to the states. Covid was territory no president had even been in. He made choices. So did you. So did I. 2 of my sons LOST THEIR JOBS BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T TAKE THE VAXX. If you or your family blindly follow anyone, then shame on you. There is no reasoning with the likes of Jimmy Fallon, etc. whose camp you seem to be in. I will no longer reply to such ignorant and ill informed responsed.

Choosing a candidate with a list of endorsements depends on who is giving it. If it's not our grassroots organizations and some PACs and only from the most recognizable politician names, then I'm suspicious if that candidate is truly FOR Texans or just another fake Republican touting him/herself as a "conservative".

Budlight? Seriously? Low bar considering what he accomplished: lowest unemployment blacks, women, asian, hispanic, youth; highest median income; manuafacturing brought back to US; more households off foodstamps; retails sales highest; historic tax cuts; opened ANWR and approved Keystone XL and Dakota Access Pipelines; Record number of regulations eliminated; Obamacare individual mandate penalty GONE (you are WAY off on his take on obamacare btw); RIGHT-TO-TRY drugs authorized; historic affordable generic drugs approved; Signed VA Choice Act and VA Accountability Act; Brought us oil independent first time EVER; withdraw from Paris Climate Accord AND Iran Deal; NATO spending more evenly dispursed; Space Force (will become huge as more exposed); Confirmed more circuit court judges than any other new administration (imagine where we would be even worse if not); 3 conservative SC Justices (although I haven't agreed with them always); Moved U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem; Replaced job-killing NAFTA; Recording breaking exports;

Imposed tariffs on foreign steel and aluminum to protect our national security, as well as on

China who stold intellectual property and lop-sided trade; SECURED OUR BORDER;

Seriously - stop focusing on a few things you disagree with and focus on the big picture. ANYONE you vote for you will not agree with 100% - BIG PICTURE. And also think about the corruption and FAKENEWS you are aware of now that you weren't 7 years ago.

I'd be curious to hear the Bob Hall/Don Huffines positive argument for their endorsement. I don't get it.

This article needs to be re-jiggered. At a glance, It looks like all the people listed support Brent and I know that's not true. Larger Fonts, Bold Letters, etcetera to separate little brent from Jace. The title leads one to think everyone listed supports little brent. I also noticed you don't have all of Jace's conservative leaders listed. How do you define conservative leader?
