Sen. Kip Averitt to Switch Parties From GOP to Democrat?

State Sen. Kip Averitt, R-McGregor, has never been described as “conservative,” so this latest news from the March 2 GOP primary campaign should come as no surprise.

Averitt needs to switch parties and become a Democrat. He’s not “moderate.” He’s just an out-and-out liberal socialist.

If that happens, real conservative Darren Yancy, R-Burleson, will be the only Republican in the race. That would make me happy.

Sen. Averitt

(Averitt represents Ellis County in Senate District 22, one of 31 senate districts across Texas.)

Look at the liberal “planks” in Averitt’s Senate Bill 16 legislation he attempted to have the State of Texas adopt.

Darren Yancy, R-Burleson

This from a Republican? No, this from a Republican In Name Only (RINO.)

Just in case there are others who would like to vent at this obvious and apparent and blatantly liberal lawmaker, here are the contacts on our State Republican Executive Committee — every political party in Texas has an executive committee comprised of individuals representing state senate districts.

Since we’re in SD-22, we have two SREC representatives who are charged with representing us before the Texas GOP.
