    Texas just elected a governor. Give it four years and the same tired fights.

    Doubt the headline all you want, but a claim this big needs more than a wire blurb. Where are the county-by-county returns, the turnout numbers, the recount margin? “Democrat wins Texas governor” would be the political story of the decade, and the piece offers nothing to check it against. Abbott’s team hasn’t conceded anything I can see, and I’m not reading a quote from a single official confirming the result.
