As for the californians moving to Tx, a lot of them aren't just chasing a job, they are conservatives attempting to escape the PRK. They don't bring the typical leftist mindset with them, moreso a sense of gratitude when they experience the greater freedoms they moved to.
There are those that just chase a job and bring thier attitude with them, however it does seem they tend to congregate around austin or in the larger cities.
They might like to try to turn the political landscape in Tx, however word is out as to what they have in mind and things have changed in the past 20 years.
It isn't as easy for the left to sell thier agenda anymore, civilian disarmament laws over & above what currently exists? (aka: 'gun control') Not going to fly in tx........ever.
Wendy Davis, the current darling of the left down there, is already now having to answer questions as to the truthfulness of the narrative the left created for her. Her agenda isn't going to sell as easily as the left thinks it will.
The biggest thing is, those on the conservative right, for a lack of a better adjective, know what the left has planned for that state and they won't be caught off-guard. It may come to pass such as things are in the PRK, wherein the rural areas remain conservative and the big cities are flat-out leftist
However the population numbers are a bit better or offer somewhat better odds in Tx, as do the predominant cultural norms.
It will be a long non-stop fight, that is assured.

That's what Colorado thought.
