ROOKE: Texans Have Been Sounding The Alarm, But No One Was Listening ... Until Now

After Texas’ University of Texas beat Ohio State with a fourth-quarter comeback during a Saturday primetime college football game, attention turned to the look of the Longhorn student section on TV, described as largely made up of Indian students. The piece focuses on the political debate triggered by a photo shared by Republican nominee for Texas Railroad Commissioner Bo French, who said the scene reflected a change he found surprising. Responses came from within the Texas Republican Party, including state Rep. Lacey Hull, state House Speaker Dustin Burrows, and state Rep. Jared Patterson, who criticized French for the implication of race or ethnicity. The article also references remarks made by Ben Shapiro and Sean Davis about demographic shifts and work displacement, but it does not include further new election-specific outcomes.
