Revolt hits Musk in his own home town as neighbors rise up: 'They're awake now'
Raw Story reports that Cameron County, Texas — home to SpaceX's Starbase, roughly 4,000 of its workers, and Elon Musk's primary residence — voted overwhelmingly for Democrats James Talarico, Gina Hinojosa, and Nathan Johnson despite Musk's demands that Texans "vote red" and his $225 million in funding for opponents. Local activists like Adhlemy Sanchez, who fought a polluting plant and worries about Boca Chica beach's future, credit neighbors' organizing and environmental concerns, while Talarico called out Musk on election night and urged taking big money out of politics.
