13281701, dallas and houston are heavily segregated/balkanized, and houston

has crazy non-zoning
the people are bluer than the elections but they're not as blue as in many other cities (especially houston) in other states
the mid sized cities in texas (50-500k) are also definitely not blue.
really el paso and the valley are the bluest parts of the state, but there are so many racists/xenophobes who don't want none of that that people from those areas have trouble stepping up to the state platform.
if beto didn't have that kennedy/santa fe/post-punk/white boy energy he wouldn't have gotten to this point.
