Andy Hogue, a member of Travis County Republicans — which calls itself an “unofficial” discussion forum for Republicans in Travis County — posted the directive in the group last week. He later said over 100 “Democrats, Progressives and assorted Socialists” were “blocked, removed or suspended” after their “pro-Talarico” posts. The group had roughly 3,600 members as of Tuesday afternoon.

“We wonder how many of these names will show up on our REPUBLICAN Primary rolls?” Hogue wrote. “Might be worth a look.”
