It was a tough night for MAGA-aligned candidates in Texas. In the May 3, 2025, local elections, voters across the state decisively rejected far-right candidates, particularly in school board and city council races. From Tarrant County to Collin County, and from San Antonio to Dallas, communities chose leaders who prioritize public education, inclusivity, and pragmatic governance over culture wars and partisan agendas. This widespread shift signals a growing resistance to extremist politics at the local level.
Good news but Abbott still signed the voucher program into law. There’s a lot more work to do in Texas.
You’re not going to get any pushback from me on that. I hope people don’t rest on their laurels after one good day.
I’ll take any good news.
This is where I’m at.
You love to see it. Let the local MAGAs crash and burn.
Go Texans!
