Texas destroys Dems 'voter suppression' meme

 Red States:

The Press Quieted Down on Texas Voting Rights Suppression as the Conflicting Results Came In

...

 The media find themselves in a tangle, and this is partly why they are not trumpeting the results from that state in the usual fashion. Normally, the press loves to herald the times POC candidates win elections, but as we have been learning in recent years, those victories do not count when the Republicans are the ones supporting minority candidates. All we need to do is flashback to the last elections in Virginia, where a female POC was selected as Lieutenant Governor, and the first Hispanic was chosen as Attorney General. All we heard was how racist Virginia voters were for selecting Glenn Younkin over the translucent Terry McAuliffe.

The Texas primary shows a couple of results that the press has little interest in addressing. In no fewer than three primary races for the House, we see Hispanic names rising to the top, and more were found in the state races, such as Janie Lopez in House District 37. These are good signs of minority emergence continuing in the elections, but it is a bad sign for media messaging, so the reporting on this becomes notably muted. 

Why? Well just consider what the running narrative has been for the past year, and longer. Recall, states that were inserting voting integrity laws were said to be trampling on voters’ rights, doing so in a racist fashion in order to squelch the voice of minority voters. Having these minority candidates winning defies that prior script that was followed. Then there is another facet that derails those prior claims – many of these Latino victories took place in the Republican primaries.

The Hispanic move to the GOP is hard to ignore, but the leftist media is trying desperately to do so.  It is clear that Hispanics and other minorities in Texas had no trouble voting.  In fact, the only people who had trouble voting were in white areas of Houston, where the Democrats who now control Harris County did not provide adequate support.
