    I’ve frequently felt that there are good people in Texas. You all fought well. Keep them in check. Here in my state of KY, I sadly have to keep fighting. From the depths of my soul, thank you for fighting.

      Kentucky native now a Texan. I always check up on you guys with a little bit of hope. Keep fighting. If we can do it in Texas you can turn the grass blue again, I believe it.

        <3 I blame the racists here for our loss. But thank goodness we flipped the district. Please investigate our state as much as you can. Especially with all that nonsense with Mitch the Bitch.

      As someone who once lived in Kentucky keep up the good fight. I’ve got a soft spot in my heart for Appalachia and I hope someday y’all can return to your roots of unions and telling the government to get the fuck out of your personal lives
