Re: Voting for republicans
Yes, we Texans hear you loud and clear. I have long voted in the Republican primaries, as those are typically the actual election out in this part of Texas. I try to pick the least repugnant repub, to at least try to mitigate damage - but with this area going about 85% for Trump, it doesn't help too much.
I just took the (empty) seat of County Chairman for the Democratic Party here, more to see if we can create difficulties for Ted Cruz than anything else, but I'm not very optimistic. Maybe we can get it down to 82% in 2018.

Re: Is "too liberal" even a thing in the US?
Agreed. Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and the Valley can all go pretty D. Here in Anglagard's and my corner of the state, not so much. Like 85% for Dubya the second time! But we're going to fight the fight....
