There are a number of Democrats leaving the democrat party. On Friday, The Washington Examiner posted an article about one of them.
The article reports:
Another longtime Texas Democrat has switched parties, joining the Republican Party, this time in the border county of Webb.
Webb County flipped red in November, joining other border counties that flipped red for the first time in over 100 years, The Center Square reported.
The region has been a Democratic stronghold since Texas became a state in 1836. The majority of residents and voters in south Texas are Hispanic. For the first time in Texas history, nearly all border counties voted for Donald Trump, including Webb County.
Webb County Judge Tano Tijerina this week announced he was leaving the Democratic Party, saying like many others before him that “the party left me, and the people of South Texas, behind.”
In a Facebook post, he said, “As Webb County Judge, I have fought to protect our shared values here in South Texas – hard work, faith, family, and freedom. Unfortunately, the radical National Democrat party no longer stands for these values, and I want to be a part of a party that not only stands for these values but also protects them.
Policies have consequences. Were it not for the decision of Governor Abbott to send the illegals to sanctuary cities in the north, the situation in Texas would have been considerably worse. The Democrat party rule has had a negative impact on lifestyles and the cost of living in the past four years. There is no reason to continue to vote for them.
