Evidence suggests several state Senate candidates were plants funded by dark money

The race for a state senate seat is going to a recount, with the candidates separated by just 31 votes, but there is a lot more to this intriguing political race.

    Both list one single contribution to their campaign; both contributions are $2000 self-loans, presumably to pay the filing fee.

    LMAO why aren't we doing this? This is brilliant.

      It really is. We should do some crowdfunding to put people with similar names on state legislator and down-ballot races in 22.

      At least in my state of Texas, the candidates are ordered by the vote the party received in the prior election.

      So - typically - R first, D second, L third, G fourth, random indies afterwards.

      If you ran Alphonso Gored and Georgia Busch as ballot candidates, they'd be so far down the ballot that nobody would notice.
