I said stay and fight for 3 reasons.

1. Because I have a feeling that Texas is on the cusp (in historical terms) of a political sea change and won’t stay _as_ conservative as it is forever.

2. Because I’m not a fan of just bailing and leaving the fight to someone else.

3. Because moving is massively disruptive and doing that for abstract principles may not be the best overall choice for my family.
