With 13 days left for the US presidential election, a billboard battle has reportedly erupted in heavily Republican Kendall County, Texas. Local Democrats put up a "VOTE DEMOCRATIC" billboard to remind voters of their presence.

For the past three election cycles, Democrats in Kendall County, Texas, have put up billboards encouraging people to vote Democratic. The billboard is a signal that while the county may be overwhelmingly Republican, it’s not entirely Republican.

Cruz has "long embraced the politics of division," the Dallas Morning News' editorial board said as it endorsed Democratic Rep. Colin Allred for U.S. Senate.

Texas' top newspaper has endorsed Democratic Representative Colin Allred over Republican Senator Ted Cruz in a closely watched race that could help determine which party wins control of the US Senate.

Cruz is downplaying his hardline opposition to abortion, while stressing his recent work with Democrats on transportation bills that bring jobs to Texas.
