As a Fort Worth Resident "Born & Raised" I was pulling for Allred but... I can't in good conscience vote for him. There is a good reason everyone and their family is flocking to Texas. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

It’s not reasonable to tell my 13 year old daughter she needs to carry a rapists pregnancy to term, it’s sickening.

[@6345788]

I'm sorry to hear about your daughter, on the other hand, Congratulations Grandpa!

[@russianbot2630]

Would you be okay with “aborting” a new born baby if it was a product of such an evil? Probably not. Besides most abortions aren’t this anyway. It’s just an excuse. Most states have exceptions in law anyway.

TED IS ALL POLTICIAN HOW HE STAND SPEAK AND LOOKS Season Politician Texas time for a new generation

lol no

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

How any Texan could vote for Ted Cruz is beyond me. He wouldn't even defend his own family, his own Dad, and his own wife when attacked by Trump. At least defend your wife's honor!

[@PointofConnection]

That is not a reason to not vote for him. There are many that have reconsidered their position and are not voting Trump. People are turned off by reality. There are many that prefered to be pandered, or to blame someone. Trump is about reality, Kamala is about denial and pandering. Cruz is getting more used to reality, but Colin is so disconnected that he is able to lie very convincingly.

[@LouGreko]

I feel sad for the uneducated folks

[@vectorphoenix5992]

Colin sure seems upset, like he's about to lose it when Ted talks

[@PaganRyan29]

ted cruz lies like his cult leader trump

[@PointofConnection]

It is very frustrating how Colin avoids what he hears, this is really about not sensing, anger, not see, not care, not make it a fact, not accept, no connection, not seeing, disconnection, not seeing, deny, disconnect, rebel, absolute denial of truth, absolute sensing of life, absolute denial of what is.

It is one of the most properous states in the US, and many people are moving here. Do you want to turn this place like San Francisco? Do you want to bring the transgender issue here? Do you want to lose your top 3 position? Then vote blue.

[@lucilleteran3282]

Please Ted! We have very high taxes!!!

[@jacqueline755]

CRUZ is yelling

[@PointofConnection]

He seems upset, angry, outraged, sad, hurt, annoyed, not sensing, not accepting he has done a good job, not moving knowing he has changed the state, not appreciating the work he has done. His issue is a lack of self confidence. However, he has delivered, but because of this lack of self-confidence there is a opening to let someone who can pander perfectly to step in.

Ted is such a coward and a loudmouth. I am so glad to live long enough to see this debate and I hope the Texans see what I see

[@PointofConnection]

You are turned off by reality. You are totally aligned to be pandered to avoid that reality. That is why voting Colin for you matters. Being pandered and placing blame for all your problems on your life on someone. Colin is about irresponsability, and it is enticing for many.

[@TeaParty09]

We've been watching Ted Cruz over the years and admire the way he forcefully fights every day for justice and common sense in America. It appears that his opponent, by his voting records, has actively tried to do the opposite. We hope to see more outstanding people like Ted Cruz eliminate the lunacy that the left has infected America with. Our support from Switzerland for Mr. Cruz, because we would like to see the America we have always admired. What it has become today under the Democrats is sad and deplorable.

Housing insurance is up because of more extreme extreme weather events and stronger and stronger hurricanes that have absolutely nothing to do with inflation as a whole that has everything to do with extreme weather events

[@_mysilentblue2227]

Housing insurance is up because of private insurance adjusters and people scamming the system. Of Course inflation has something to do with it, if the cost of materials for the repairs goes up then it cost the insurance co more that gets passed down to the consumer.

We’ve talked a lot about how the 2024 election might impact the markets. Has anyone made significant gains or losses in previous election years?

[@Deboramichael1]

Since risk is at an all-time high right now, perhaps you should be a little more patient and return when it has decreased. Alternatively, you can consult a trained financial expert for strategy.

[@Bismarksolomon]

Oh, for sure. In 2016, I took a hit with tech stocks-lost about $70k in just a few weeks because I wasn’t prepared for the regulations that followed the election. But I did make around $85k by shifting into defense stocks, which surged after the election. It was a rollercoaster, but I didn’t have the right strategy going in. things got better when i employed the services of a CFA

[@EdwardAnthony5]

Yeah, I've noticed a big dip in my portfolio too. It's been a rollercoaster ride these past few months. Please who is the advisor that guides you

[@Bismarksolomon]

Finding financial advisors like *Julianne Iwersen Niemann* who can assist you would be a creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent money management will be essential to navigating them.
