Are you a fan of South Plains politics? Here are your talking points for this week.

South Plains residents cast their votes Saturday for mayors, city council members, county commissioners, for and against school bonds and alcohol sales. We’ll recap some key races on today’s edition of Talking Points.  

After months of campaigning and endless, crazy debates, there will be no conservative on a white horse to ride into the convention in Cleveland. Donald Trump is the nominee. We’ll look at why Ted Cruz’s trip to the White House could not get farther than Indiana. 

The Texas Republican Convention gavels in this week. They promise a new, more inclusive GOP gathering. How far can and should they break from the old traditions. We speak with the Lubbock County Chairman for a preview.

Talking Points with Bryan Mudd airs each Sunday morning at 11:30 a.m. and Sunday evenings at 11:05 p.m.
