Lying your way into office
This is a typical campaign season filled with political ads laced with lies Early voting ends today, Nov. 4, at 9 p.m. On Tuesday, Nov.
8, Election Day polls are open 7 a.m.-7 p.m. If you watch commercial television, you’ve seen the ads: Democrats running for office in Texas are all for open borders; the Democratic candidate for attorney general is an attorney for human traffickers.
And it’s Beto’s fault that a murderer was let out of prison and killed the son of a woman who’s now supporting the incumbent governor.
School shootings, fixing the grid and abortion are all issues of concern in Texas. But if you only listen to GOP candidates’ ads, you would think the only issues for Texans are immigration and “boys who think they are girls” competing in sports.
