2. I begin to wonder

is there someone with a conscience, or is this a case of “Stop me before I kill again!”, or are they genuinely this stupid.

3. Juanita Jean-Texas GOP has hired Karl Rove to save Texas from turning blue

the Texas GOP has hired Karl Rove to save Texas from turning blue https://juanitajean.com/barrel-meet-bottom/

The Republican Party of Texas has hired a political consultant to form their plan for keeping Texas red.
It’s Karl Rove.

I didn’t even know he was still alive. I thought he died of a bad case of mean as hell.

Well, I’m girding up my loins and getting ready to beat Karl Rove. It’ll be fun!

4. Texas Republican Party's 2020 election strategy document lands in Democrats' hands

The GOP crammed through the elimination of straight ticket voting and this may backfire https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/11/26/republican-party-of-texas-election-strategy-document-for-2020-elections-leaked-to-democrats/

The plan also addresses a nagging concern for the Texas GOP: Trump’s unpopularity with some Republicans in the state.

“Given the polarizing nature of the President, I suspect some Republicans will refuse to turnout during the General Election because they don’t want to vote for him - though I don’t know that we will know what this universe would look like without us or a stakeholder creating a model,” the document reads. “Regardless, I suggest we set up a contingency budget to target these folks with mailers, digital ads, and texts to encourage them to turnout for U.S. Senate, State Senate, State House, and so on.”

It is unclear who the "I" in the document refers to.

The plan also identifies the Republican-led elimination of straight ticket voting as “one of the biggest challenges ahead of the 2020 cycle.” To address that, the plan details an effort to convince Republican voters to vote for GOP candidates all the way down the ballot manually through a tagline. Some of the potential taglines include: “Vote Right All the Way Down!” “Vote Right To The Bottom!” and “Vote RIGHT Down the Ballot!”

5. Well, I've been getting their spam for about a month!!!!

And it's been getting worse everyday.

Haven't checked my email today. I wonder if they will be more selective.

7. Here is an e-mail that I received from one of the candidates targeted by this GOP plan

I am friends with Sarah Slamen who one of the female sanders staffers who was sexually harassed. Sarah is working for a candidate who flipped a state house seat from red to blue and is now being targeted by the GOP. I gave this lady some money last year and got this e-mail

Earlier this week Republicans accidentally leaked their political strategy plans for next year. The plans detail how they propose to win seats in North Texas, including House District 115. But what’s not accidental is why they’re targeting me - they know they’re vulnerable in 2020 and are prepared to do whatever it takes to win this seat back.

The leak shows what Republicans are willing to do to keep their majority in the House - including creating fake websites and running false advertisements. They’re ready to launch dubious misinformation campaigns to deceive voters as opposed to having honest conversations about the issues that affect Texans.

You deserve better than this.

You deserve better than the wildly radical candidate that the Trump Republican’s have handpicked to challenge me for House District 115.

"It’s no surprise that the Republicans are targeting the seats that they lost in the prior elections but what is surprising is that they’re willing to stoop to dubious misinformation campaigns to deceive voters as opposed to having honest conversations about the issues that affect Texans,” said Rep. Julie Johnson of Carrollton, a first-term Democrat who unseated a staunch conservative to win House District 115 in northwest Dallas County in 2018."

Help me fight back against the wave of attacks that we know will be coming in 2020 by making a $20.00 contribution to my campaign today. We’re ready to fire back and tell voters the truth about who’s working for them down in Austin and who’s just making up lies.

The Republican Party of Texas knows that we won’t be giving up HD115 without a fight.
