Ted Cruz Mocks Colin Allred Campaign: Texas Republican senator Ted Cruz mocked his Democratic opponent on social media late at night. He accomplished this by highlighting a recent campaign event’s low attendance.
Cruz remarked on X, “Wow, only six people showed up in San Antonio,” in response to Rep. Colin Allred’s Democratic bid against him. Cruz and Allred are running. Allred is one of eleven Texas Democrats running for Senate on March 5, 2024. This is the state primary and election day.
Allred’s first post was four photographs of a tropical-themed pub. This was part of his Lone Star Listening Tour. There were photos of Allred and a fan taking a selfie and a dozen people standing together. But some of the persons in the image may have worked there.
He stated Bexar County, home to San Antonio and the fourth-most people in the state, would vote against Ted Cruz in the next election.
