Beto O'Rourke had some positive words to share about Beyonce after his loss during the US midterm elections was blamed on the singer. Beyonce was showered in criticism for the last-minute endorsement of her political pick. She shared her championship of Senate candidate early evening on the day citizens were heading to the polls to cast their votes. According to the politician, Beyonce is actually one of the finest Texans.
When asked about the entertainer's timing of her support of his campaign, O'Rourke responded without a single mention of critique towards her.
"I am so grateful to her...She is one of the great artists of our time, one of the best people to come out of Houston and Texas. I was grateful that she supported us. Whenever it came, it was great."
Beyonce had shared photos of herself wearing a baseball cap stitched with the politician's name to express her endorsement.
"I’m feeling grateful for everyone before me who fought so hard to give us all the right to have a voice. We can’t voice our frustrations and complain about what’s wrong without voting and exercising our power to make it right. We need you. We all need each other, because when we are truly united we are unstoppable. Sending you all love and positivity on this happy voting day!
Every vote counts
Every race matters
Everywhere."
Many parts of her following express disappointment with the fact that her validation came so late in the game.
