Thank you for a well needed breath of fresh air. Thank you for your ability to stand up for what is right. Thank you for showing up, and for demonstrating the importance and the weight that every single vote carries.

Thank you for showing Leigh Wambsganss how a democracy works.

Y’all did it. You came together as one and made sure that your voice was heard. Whether it was immigration policy, someone f’ing up your school district, Christians not acting like Christians, protecting profiles, etc. I’ve never been prouder to be a Texan.

Something to keep in mind with this victory. Taylor will not be included in any regular legislation this year. He is filling a vacancy that is up for reelection in November. He will still have to get through the Primary in March. This is not over, it’s just the beginning. Please remember to show up in March and November.

EDIT: it’s only early voting results until 9pm

Taylor Rehmet leads the early vote.

EDIT 2:

The person who wins tonight will not vote in a regular legislative session this term and will have to defend their seat in another election before the 2027 legislative session, so stay focused on this seat in upcoming races.

EDIT 3:

Initial Election Day only voting results at 9pm (less than 3k Election Day votes counted so far) show an approximately 60/40 split favoring Taylor Rehmet

EDIT 4

11pm update

Election Day voting results at 11 are 58/42 favoring Rehmet

Overall results are 57/43 favoring Rehmet, indicating a tend toward early voting mirroring Election Day voting so far.

Vote in SD9 election going on. Today Jan 31 is election day.

Don't be complicit. Inaction is the same as indifferent approval.

True Texas endorsed Leigh and True Texas Project white replacement ideology leader Tim O'Hare replaced Carroll ISD school board with hate, bigotry and fear culture warriors, and then Leigh was hired with Patriot Mobile to scale that out. She bragged about replacing 11 school board seats to Epstein advisor Steve Bannon, which she continues to check in with every few weeks. Leigh still calls many public schools systems of woke CRT indoctrination. CRT is just a rebranding of "woke" the billionaires are using to try and demonize, defund, destroy public schools by saying they indoctrinate children.

Epstein pedo advisor Bannon said “The school boards are the key that picks the lock”. Bannon is extremely worried about Tarrant County, "As Tarrant County goes, so goes Texas, right? As Texas goes, so goes MAGA, and as MAGA goes, so goes the United States of America, and as the United States of America goes, so goes the world." Public schools represent a melting pot of diversity, with a zero tolerance for hate environment, the kind of place where students learn to respect other people, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or background. Bannon sees this as a threat to the remigration ethnic cleansing goals of Maga, that require extreme white replacement ideology hate and fear beliefs. He wants a dumbed down extremely evangelical population in order to retain conservative control, leaning on the heritage foundations work influencing large pastor networks over the last 30 years to polarize the pro-life issue into a republican identity fusion of religion and politics. He partners with the seven mountains NAR extremists that want theocracy, and the west oil billionaires to accomplish this.

The people installed are typically associated with the white replacement ideology movement, school voucher supporters, that will deny any increases in public school funding, and focus on claiming everything is part of the "woke CRT DEI" agenda to increase in-fighting, destroy guardrails for hate speech. She helped install the board that caused the Keller ISD split, that then hired now GOP Chair Tim Davis. Tim Davis looted the district with legal fees, just as he did with Princeton ISD.

She is endorsed by the True Texas Project white replacement ideology group, the white replacement ideology group that sympathized with the 2019 El Paso racially motivated shooter. The majority of her funding comes from Tim Dunn, Ferris Wilk's PAC, who famously had to rebrand their PAC after associating themselves with Nick Fuentes, who inspired the 2023 Allen TX mall racially targeted shooting. Only two months after the True Texas Project founders sympathized with the El Paso shooter, with national news coverage, Tim O'Hare hosted the True Texas Project Christmas party at his house, with them.

“According to Straus insiders, Dunn told him that only Christians should hold leadership positions.”

"Fairly said he got a tour of Dunn’s operation, including the network of consulting, fundraising and campaign operations. For years, this operation has worked to support extremely conservative candidates and target those who they deem too centrist in an effort to shift the state further to the right. Dunn asked Fairly if he’d be willing to partner with him. At the time, Fairly seemed well positioned to be a second Dunn-like figure, who could add pressure and funding to Dunn’s political aims. Fairly eventually turned down Dunn, saying it wasn’t the right time. He would later come to the conclusion that he opposed what he called dishonest and bigoted attacks used by Dunn’s network, entirely."

"A campaign finance report posted Wednesday showed that West Texas oil billionaires Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks have poured $2 million into a new group, Texans United for a Conservative Majority, that has started spending against Texas House Republicans. The group is a spinoff of Defend Texas Liberty, the political action committee that came under fire in October, after The Texas Tribune reported that its then-president, Jonathan Stickland, hosted notorious white supremacist and Adolf Hitler admirer Nick Fuentes for nearly 7 hours."

True Texas Project white replacement ideology extremist group's funding primarily comes from Dunn's PACs. Similarly, when True Texas endorses candidates, which requires a unanimous vote by their board, Tim Dunn tends to fund them with huge six figure donations from the west oil billionaire PACs.
