“Beto for Texas,” street mural by Chris Rogers, in East Austin. The Hill, via Brains and Eggs.
Brains and Eggs quoted The Hill:
Artist Chris Rogers has been at work on the mural for weeks, according to progress documented on his Instagram, but he put the finishing touches on it just as early voting began in the state.
The mural, located in East Austin, features O’Rourke, a rising Democratic star, standing in front of a Texas flag with his shirt unbuttoned to reveal a “B” emblem, reminiscent of Superman’s “S.”
“Out of the darkness comes the light,” Rogers wrote of the mural, which is entitled “Beto For Texas.”
Rogers said that the mural took 40 hours to paint, according to Austin Monthly.
Does street art drive votes? Ask yourself this: Do you think anyone painted any mural in any town in Texas for Ted Cruz?
Blue dot? As are Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio and El Paso. Interesting that the state’s biggest, most important and most successful cities are all blue dots.
Is there a moral there?

No, I have not seen any street art for Cruz so far. Austin is a blue dot in red Texas.
