Fox News reports Dan Patrick's concession that Texas "turned purple" after Democrats won every statewide race, flipping the governor's office to Gina Hinojosa, the Senate seat to James Talarico, and the lieutenant governor's office to Vikki Goodwin, leaving Ted Cruz the only Republican in statewide office. On his podcast, Patrick blames voter frustration over affordability and the Iran war's fuel costs, and warns Republicans must work to keep Texas from turning blue in 2028, 2030, and 2032.
