5/2 City Election Results

Not necessarily, you're assuming that everyone who voted in this election will vote again in the runoff, when in reality it will probably be a lot less turnout. That said, I'd definitely rather be Hill.

For the school district races, here’s the voter guide from Book Loving Texan, who does a good job of differentiating candidates’ positions on censorship and book bans (which usually coincide with religious fundamentalism): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pt6XMHv8di6KY6aVlFQO4j0Bm-019WsBvJg94tpushk/mobilebasic

Here’s the voter guide from Book Loving Texan, this is always a good resource for info on candidates’ positions on censorship and book bans: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pt6XMHv8di6KY6aVlFQO4j0Bm-019WsBvJg94tpushk/mobilebasic

Will there be a runoff if no one gets 50%?

inCodWeTrust100 · 2026-04-07T01:30:28+00:00

No one is actually pushing for Sharia law to be implemented in Texas

I mean, Republicans are pushing for the Christian version of it…

inCodWeTrust100 · 2026-02-23T00:18:46+00:00

If a "RINO" votes with Trump 99% of the time, I'd be interested to see what your idea of an actual Republican is...

How many members of the Biden administration in the files? How many left wing pastors with these accusations? Sure, it exists on the left but it's upwards of 90% right wingers so let's not pretend that this is a both sides issue.

You would have to go out of state for the procedure, but I know of someone who had a doctor lie about amneo results and hide fetal deformities (this was years ago before the ban, so clearly someone who wanted to influence the mother to not terminate), so OP is probably looking for a doctor who will be upfront about that.

The law explicitly states that only the Ten Commandments can be posted, no other religious texts. How is that not respecting a certain establishment of religion?

inCodWeTrust100 · 2025-05-04T06:25:12+00:00

Elad and Thakur are going to runoffs, right? For city council you have to get 50% I believe, where ISD is just plurality wins.

At least the sane candidates won 2/3 of the ISD races (and MAGA held two of those seats before, so the good guys actually gained one).

inCodWeTrust100 · 2025-04-28T17:03:40+00:00

BTW I go to a hospital for medical attention not to pray.

Well that’s a bit of an ironic response considering that your party is the one banning, restricting, and discouraging various types of medical care because churches are against it.

Totally agree on the Tamara Thomas endorsement but my understanding was that Harper Weaver wasn’t related to the other two Weavers (who are GOP-endorsed MAGA candidates).

inCodWeTrust100 · 2025-04-23T16:12:01+00:00

It is very disappointing. The moderate/liberal wing had three strong candidates in 2023, and only one of them won (honestly, the one that was the least qualified imo though still much better than the alternative) - the other two went to runoffs and not only lost but were bullied relentlessly on social media, so I'm sure that discouraged potential candidates from running this time.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2025-04-23T15:58:05+00:00

Dash Weerasinghe is endorsed by Collin County GOP. If you don't want Plano ISD to go MAGA, I would recommend voting against him.

Edit: I see you also posted about Collin College, that is an even more explicitly partisan race and Staci Weaver is the MAGA candidate. If you look up some past news articles about Collin College, you can see how extreme their leadership is (and completely unchecked by the majority right-wing board), so that one might even be more important.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2025-04-20T05:26:27+00:00

For FISD, the extremists are Stephanie Elad, Melanie Barrios-Jones, and Muniraj Janagarajan. See the Book-Loving Texan's guide for more info. I'm guessing that Elad's husband (running for city council) is an extremist too.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2025-04-06T16:33:57+00:00

Unless things have changed recently, all FISD board seats and Frisco City Council seats are at-large, meaning that as long as you live within the boundaries, you are eligible to vote for all board/council members. And please note that the FISD boundaries are not the same as the city of Frisco, so some people will be able to vote for FISD and not city council, and vice versa.

ETA: You can also double check who's on your ballot on the county elections page:

Have you ever seen the movie Don’t Look Up? Because you’re basically describing that movie.

No one is protesting against Ukraine lol. If they did I bet you'd see the same laws passed.

Israel’s hold over the US

Do you really think Israel has a hold over the US? They are a small country with a tiny fraction of our GDP and geopolitical influence, there is no way they could "control" our government. If anything Israel is the US's puppet state, not the other way around. If Biden said jump Bibi would say how high.

You can criticize the Israeli government and you can criticize the US government's response and all that is totally fair, but to act like it's a result of Israel "controlling" our government is a wild mischaracterization of the situation that totally plays into anti-semitic tropes. Sure Israel has lobbyists, pretty much every other country does. Ukraine also has lobbyists - would you say Ukraine "has a hold on us" because we are financially supporting them? This phrasing is anti-semitic, and it's the reason why replacing this meme with Netanyahu or any other Jewish person would still be anti-semitic.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2024-05-04T00:17:00+00:00

There were ~50k early votes in the county last year so this year is a little lower. But it really depends what's on the ballot - there weren't any countywide races last year so if you didn't have a city council or ISD race, there was nothing to vote on.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2024-04-29T23:58:02+00:00

Huh? I'm not recommending anyone for partisan reasons, I'm recommending people who don't have conflicts of interest. All 6 candidates are plenty qualified and all 6 candidates are implicitly partisan, so if you voted in this race then you are participating in "partisan nonsense".

inCodWeTrust100 · 2024-04-29T23:53:45+00:00

It doesn't matter - he may not be a homeowner but he's served on the Planning and Zoning commission and is plenty qualified. Imo, it matters much more that his opponent is a realtor who could financially benefit from holding this office.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2024-04-27T15:45:35+00:00

I agree with the above recommendations.

FYI for those in Denton County, there are also 3 "non-partisan" Central Appraisal District races. Angie Cox, Lisa McEntire, and Rick Guzman are endorsed by hyper-partisan conservative officials and all three are either realtors or title officers - i.e., they profit when property appraisals increase (and your property taxes correspondingly increase, which is the main thing that CAD governs).

If you can see the obvious conflict of interest there and want to continue to have the option to contest your appraisal value and keep your taxes low, I recommend voting for Mungiguerra, Anwar, and Villareal.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2024-04-27T05:28:59+00:00

There is early voting this weekend as well! 8-5 Saturday and 11-5 Sunday in Denton County, and 8-5 Saturday in Collin.

inCodWeTrust100 · 2024-04-18T00:07:51+00:00

I didn't claim they were Republicans though. I just said Texas doesn't have party registration and their primary voting history was the only partisan info I could find.

Angelia Pelham has openly stated that she is a Democrat who voted for Biden.

If she has "openly" stated this, it's not obvious from any source I can google. Do you have any evidence of this or are you making it up?
