Pull up a chair. Here’s what we actually think.

Same honesty as the cards: we don’t invent winners, and a win doesn’t raise a number. Pick a state in the header for that state’s ZIP lookup and candidate list.

Florida Winner / Lost stamps are unofficial — county election-night tables and Florida Election Watch, not the certified canvass. Texas is the November 3 general. A stamp is not a score. Numbers live on the card.

45 · 35 · 20

How we score

Christian 45, Constitution 35, GOP 20. The letter is the 100-point total.

Ballot measures

Only measures with posted ballot language belong here. Texas SOS does not list statewide constitutional amendments for November 3, 2026 (the 17-proposition vote was November 4, 2025). On file: Dallas County’s tax-rate election — HOLD, no invented YES/NO. City, ISD, and MUD propositions stay off this list until posted. Confirm every oval at VoteTexas.gov.

Policy tracker

Same published rubric as Florida: Christian 45 · Constitution 35 · GOP 20. The letter on a card is the 100-point total (80 A · 60 B · 40 C · 20 D · 19-under F). Public A–F is not a research-depth mark.

Texas already held its primary (March 3) and runoff (May 26). This page is the November 3, 2026 general. Texas is not a Florida closed primary — voters do not register by party. Timeline below is what is on file — not invented amendments.

How to vote

General election: Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Register by Monday, October 5, 2026 (30th day before Election Day).

Your real ballot is by full address and precinct, not ZIP. Official starting points: VoteTexas.gov · Texas Secretary of State.

This is a values guide, not the county elections office. Always confirm names on your sample ballot.

How scoring works

Same method in every live state. Higher weight means more influence on the 0–100 values score. The letter on a card is that total: 80–100 A · 60–79 B · 40–59 C · 20–39 D · 0–19 F. Callouts for Trump, DeSantis, Musk, and MAHA are badges, not extra points — so you can filter them without double-counting party loyalty.

Christian score 45 pts

Highest priority · faith & family policy

Explicit public faith in Jesus Christ (weighted heaviest)
Campaign/public life that centers Christ, Scripture & church
Pro-life / protection of the unborn
Religious liberty & conscience rights
Parental rights in education
Traditional marriage & family policy
Opposition to gender ideology in schools/sports
Conduct: not quarrelsome; correct opponents with gentleness (2 Timothy 2:24–25). Destroy arguments against the knowledge of God (2 Corinthians 10:5) — that is not a license to be mean. Opened mean campaigning is a slight dock (−1 to −3), never a zero
Legislative votes help — but outspoken Christian identity beats quiet institutional conservatism

Constitution score 35 pts

Second priority · U.S. Constitution & liberty
(formerly labeled “paleo-conservative” — same ideas, clearer name)

Limited federal government & local control
Secure borders / immigration enforcement
Skepticism of endless foreign wars
Free enterprise; caution on globalist trade deals
Reading the Constitution as written
Protecting American culture & institutions from radical ideology
Fiscal restraint / low taxes
Health freedom / MAHA — live free of coercive government health & food policy; your family chooses

GOP score 20 pts

Third priority · Republican Party alignment

Republican Party registration / nomination
GOP platform & party organization alignment
Conservative legislative voting record
Support from mainstream Republican institutions

🦅 Trump callout

Shown when a candidate has a formal Trump endorsement, explicit MAGA / Trump-agenda campaigning, or a clear Trump-world alliance. Use the filter chip to show only these candidates. Does not add score points on its own.

🍊 DeSantis callout

Shown for candidates who preserve or advance Governor Ron DeSantis’s Florida agenda (parental rights, anti-DEI, free speech, free-state legislation) or who served as DeSantis-era partners. Badge only — does not add to the 100-point total. The DeSantis filter chip is on the Florida guide only.

🚀 Musk callout

Shown when a candidate is positive toward Elon Musk and/or his companies (Tesla, SpaceX, X free-speech ethos, DOGE-style efficiency). Trump-aligned alone is not enough (they have publicly clashed). Badge only — no automatic score points.

🥗 MAHA callout

Make America Healthy Again — clear MAHA Institute / MAHA Commission leadership, Stand for Health Freedom–style medical freedom, or campaign food-system integrity. Counts twice: 🥗 badge for filtering and raises the Constitution score (liberty from coercive health/food policy).

Important: This guide is editorial and values-based — not neutral journalism and not an official election authority. Scores use public records, Ballotpedia, campaign statements, and voting history where available. Always verify with your sample ballot and county elections office.

How current is this guide?

Candidate lists, scores, and notes are reviewed against public sources (Ballotpedia, campaign materials, county elections offices, and news reporting). Ballots can change — always confirm with your official sample ballot before voting.

ZIP codes & sample ballots

ZIP lookup only estimates statewide races plus Harris, Dallas, Tarrant, Bexar, Travis, or Collin when that is your county. Your ZIP can cover more than one city or school district — confirm on your sample ballot. Official ballots are by full address. Confirm names at VoteTexas.gov and your county elections office.

What this page does not cover

This is not a 254-county sample ballot. We have not scored every Texas office: remaining one-name numbered benches in Dallas, Tarrant, Bexar, and Travis; U.S. House districts outside the launch-metro list; Texas House seats outside Harris-printed 126–150; city, school-board, and special-district races; and appraisal-district boards whose candidate names are not posted. We will not invent those fields. Confirm your official ballot: Texas Secretary of State · VoteTexas.gov · county elections offices.

Florida’s ZIP guide stays at /fl. This Texas ZIP helper covers statewide races plus the 15 launch-metro counties in the filter. Unique HTML landings so far: Harris and Dallas. It is not a 254-county dump.
