I will share my little voting experience in Houston the other day. Our poling place is a community center with a large gym/basketball court. The signs lead you to the side door of the gym, only to find out that the gym is for Democrats. No sign for Republicans. I poked my head in and there was no one other than the volunteers. I finally found a line of people inside the community center offices and asked if they were Republicans waiting to vote. They said yes. Turns out, the Republicans got to vote in the Breakroom for the 3 employees of the center. The room had a microwave, a fridge, and room for one table. So, to sum up... Dems get the entire gym with no one there to vote, Republicans get a glorified closet and there were 30 or so in line.... and this is in heavily Democratic Houston.

LT Brad McInnis This is SO WRONG! I voted day before yesterday, but it wasn't like this at all. Voting is at the Library at the entrance of my neighborhood.

Same way here in Rockford, Il. The state law states NO Polling or Political Activism with in the Voting Area. But All BLUE and Folks even are rude and obnoxious to anyone NOT supporting the TAX You UNTIL YOU DIE ATTITUDE! Me the Ole Soldier PROUDLY Displaying my ARMY Retired CAP.. well they sort of MOVE Away from me.. I cant imagine why. I am polite, I open doors and I proudly Tell them I was an Independent all my life until the Ohbama days. NEVER AGAIN as I smile and wish them wonderful day.

Sgt Wayne Wood Beto O'Rourke 641,337 61.8% Ted Cruz got 631,812 ...this is only the primary. Most folks do not vote in the primary....they wait till what most folks think is the REAL VOTING. then several million of the 12 million folks in Texas will come out and vote for either Beto or Cruz.
