County Judge Lina Hidalgo beat a very well financed opponent. That was about as close as the Rs came to winning a big one. Dems flipped a seat on commissioners' court, giving the Ds a 4-1 majority.

jurisdictions and 50 places where politicians want power and media and corporations can experiment with public manipulation to their hearts content, profitably.

And half these 50 nations appear to install a dictator at the top. Clean up that act, it’s silly!
