2. I went through this decision yesterday as I was filling in my mail-in ballot.

My decision was this - I tend to agree with Gutierrez more on the issues than Allred but I think Allred has a better chance to get elected in Texas. I just want Ted Cruz gone and I think a moderate will have a better chance of getting elected in Texas. Although with Texas being at about 40% hispanic I wonder if a hispanic surname would improve Gutierrez chances.

Whatever - that was my decision - Allred who seems like a decent person and if we can rid ourselves of Cruz it will be a day of celebration for me and I suspect for most of the nation.
