Trump won Texas 56.3-42.4 by a margin of 1.569 million votes.
Ted Cruz won Texas 53.10-44.5 by a margin of 971,000 votes.
Cruz won by ~220,000 votes in 2018 and Trump won by ~600,000 votes in 2020.
Trump got nearly 1 million more votes in Texas than he did 4 years ago. That is a breathtaking number and bodes well for the Statewide elections coming up in 2026. Texas is redder than it was just before COVID. It seems clear that the California transplants are mostly political refugees and not a bunch of liberals moving to Texas. We are getting a disproportionate share of their conservatives.
