People, not Donors



The quarter billion dollars Elon spent
to push Ken Paxton's chances came to nought.
While pundits ponder what this outcome meant,
this season, some things still just can't be bought.
Gross wads of dollars couldn't stem the breach
in credibility Ken Paxton'd caused.
The guy Republicans had once impeached,
is no one Texans want enacting laws 
As hyphenated candidates come through,
the White minority must learn its place.
From coast to coast, as districts flip to Blue,
we're looking for more policy, less race.
Not everyone is in big donors' debt.
Democracy, it seems, is not dead yet.
