The idea is to see how possible it might for socialists (not necessarily party members or running under that party's banner) to be as influential as possible in TX history.
The early German proto socialists were largely wiped out by Confederate persecution in the CW. My suggested POD is that Governor Sam Houston accepts Lincoln's offer of federal troop to keep him in office. IOTL Houston refused. I'd suggest that at the least federal troops may have kept ther parts of TX with the most Unionists, NE of Dallas, the German Hill Country, and S TX from San Antonio on down, from falling to insurgents.
