Is this due to gerrymandering? It is a huge problem in North Carolina too, and you see it all the way down to the local level for drawing up school districts.

a lot of it is gerrymandering, but off the top of my head, texan hispanics being a) not registered to vote in large amounts and b) the ones who are registered more likely to be conservative than registered hispanics in many other states, along with texan whites being more conservative than the average white american, are other factors that make turning texas blue harder than just moving the hispanic slider on this website (which uses national averages for racial partisanship) and watching texas turn blue would indicate

Both of the Republicans have said in their speech that the Lord made today happen.

This is why Kasich never can win anything nationally. He just really used the phrase Shock and Awe as if that didn't have terrible connotations.

Voter ID laws, gerrymandering, pretty much every kind of fuckery you can imagine because they're smart enough to know that Texas may end up being their last stand, in the state whose most relevant historical moment involved a bunch of white people being massacred by Mexicans.

How does that work when electoral votes are assigned based on the popular vote? Did you mean to say that it may have a Dem popular vote but still have majority-R reps in the house?

Turns out this entire election campaign is a bizarre delivery mechanism for a sequel to the Gene Wilder sex-comedy Woman in Red.
