The Valley went red just like I told Mike Mitchell it would and reported here.
Most of those counties have been solidly blue for my lifetime.

ledvmWow! I am surprised that no Mikes have been on to tell me that the border was actually fine.

lavacaLane,
This map is wrong! Starr County, a bastion of Democratic politics that is probably 90% hispanic went 58% for Trump. That's higher than the state average. It shouldn't be pink, it should be RED!. Same with Hidalgo, Cameron and Willacy Counties, although not by the same margin. Kamala flipped the Valley Red. That's pretty hard to do.

lavacaFor those of you who ain't Texans, the Valley is the Rio Grande Valley, where I grew up. It's easily 80% hispanic if not more and certainly more in Starr County. These are the four southernmost counties in South Texas. Right on the Rio Grande and suffered most from the last Administration's border policy. They all flipped.

bwanajayI am looking forward to some relief here in South Texas. The illegals are out of control... all you can do is go heeled and be prepared for the worst and hope for the best when you are in the Texas/Mexico border brush country.
In the pre-Biden days, it was common to run across illegals when you were hunting or working cattle in the brush and normally all they wanted was water and a bite to eat. For the most part that's all changed in a very negative way.

100% correct^^^
But don’t be surprised if “a Mike” shows up here to tell you to not believe your own personal experience and that we are just making it up.

I have no idea how that got garbled.
They will pass ko legislation, no lasting significant relief.
Just like 2016-2018.
Majorities in both Chambers and President w a goose egg.

ledvmThe sides are so separated on the philosophy of immigration that the only way to pass meaningful legislation is with a super majority.
