What struck me watching @GinaHinojosaTX right after the call: she took in the enormity of the win, then stepped into the role of Governor-elect with immediate dignity and gravitas. Like she was breathing it in.

When #txlege House R’s voted w/ their constituents & w/ their convictions against vouchers, our governor defeated them. When Texans finally got to vote on vouchers, they defeated @GregAbbott_TX. We have said it for 15 years: Texans say NO to vouchers. #txed @GinaHinojosaTX

New: Gov. Greg Abbott spent years trying to make school vouchers a reality in Texas, even pushing to unseat rural Republicans who stood in the way. Some lawmakers believe the effort contributed to his party's historic demise in the midterms. propub.li/3VbTDPN

New: After Gina Hinojosa’s win, appointed school board presidents in state takeover districts say they’re preparing for their removal as early as January. "I know they will have the authority on day one to replace all of us." Latest for @texastribune: texastribune.org/2026/11/06/…

Texas-based GOP data scientist @JREakin told @NBCNews back in November that his party would come to regret this redistricting push: "They’ve pushed the envelope and it’s going to come back to bite them in the ass...they’re high as a fucking kite off of 2024."
To my eye, Dems have definitively taken the lead in the mid-decade redistricting battle for this cycle. 🔵 Ds will likely gain 8-10 seats 🔴 Rs will likely gain 4-8 seats And it seems like an awfully big risk for FL to further redraw its map given the swings we’re seeing in special elections.

This is where school reform must begin after testing is stopped. Schools should not be punished for holding students accountable for inappropriate and sometimes criminal acts.
I agree with 95% of this - signed a history teacher & coach. The inclusion classes & 504 accommodations are a huge problem. I agree with the discipline issues BUT the state punishes districts that have too many suspensions, alternative school placements & tickets/fines.

.@hakeemjeffries Only you could undermine a historic night for Democrats by going on TV and saying "The American people don't want us to get even" It's never been about that. It IS about ACCOUNTABILITY and the RULE OF LAW. And your failure to understand this is DISQUALIFYING

I don’t think anybody realises just how far reaching this impact is going to be. Texas is so enormous that school curriculums here affect textbooks and by extension other schools curriculums all over the country!
THIS JUST IN: Democrats have FLIPPED the Texas State Board of Education! This is a monumental win for Texas students, families, and the entire education community in our great state. Congratulations to our incredible candidates!
