The recent election in Texas was a sham

Yeah, and it probably is greeted with shrugged shoulders as if to say, "so what"?

Even if nobody cares, I think I can tell you enough here that you may do more than just shrug your shoulders.

There was LOTS of candidates that ran UNOPPOSED in this primary.  That may not surprise you.  Also, when reporting the results, the Houston Chronicle did not post the results of those races in which the candidate ran unopposed.  So, the thought occurred to me:  what if the results were embarrassing to publish?  Or even worse than that---what if the unopposed candidates received hardly any votes AT ALL!  Or even more:  What if they received NO VOTES at all.  Legally, that would require a runoff, as nobody got a majority.  But since nobody ran against them, there could be no runoff.

The fact that the outcome of an election could be so scandalous that it cannot be published is another example of scandal.   We should be scandalized by this, by nobody cares.

As I wrote before:  The Roman Empire fell because nobody cared enough to defend it.  So the same fate shall befall us as it did with the Romans.
