Ted Cruz’s election party in Texas.

To be fair, this is Texas, where no Democrat has won a statewide race since 1994. It has not voted for a Democrat for president since 1976, when Jimmy Carter won the state.But election results throughout the state showed that this would not be the case in his match against Colin Allred, the former NFL linebacker who failed to tackle Cruz.

Ironically, shortly after Fox News called his race, the party spun “Takin’ Care of Business,” by Bachman–Turner Overdrive, which like Cruz, originally hailed from Canada.
Later on, the party bumped “Summer of ‘69” by Bryan Adams and “Rockin’ in the Free World” by Neil Young, who also hailed from the Great White North.
How does someone keep Texas Texas if Canadians keep hanging out in the Lone Star state?
