1. good

that much harder for repukes to demonize a straight white male Christian Texan and in the meantime, those vile pieces of shits Paxton and Cornyn can publicly shred each other

[mobeau69]

2. Agree. I really like Crockett but she needs to polish her delivery a little like AOC has done.

[DFW]

3. I like Crockett's delivery just fine

The problem is that a majority of Texas voters probably would not. I would have loved to have Crockett as my Senator, but in 2026, Talarico had to be my choice for nominee. A Democrat’s chance to win a Senate seat in Texas is slim enough as it is. At least now, the chance just improved a bit.

9. You made my point: "The problem is that a majority of Texas voters probably would not."

12. Curious as to why you say that. I obviously don't know a lot about TX politics.

4. From The Hill

James Talarico is projected to defeat Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the closely watched Democratic primary for Senate in Texas, according to Decision Desk HQ.

The rising star now presents Democrats’ best hope of winning in the red state, where Democrats haven’t won statewide in decades.

Controversy surrounding a CBS “Late Show” segment appeared to give Talarico, a presbyterian seminarian and former public school teacher, a surge of momentum in the weeks ahead of the primary.

But Talarico pulled through with a majority of support on Tuesday, 53.1 percent to Crockett’s 45.6 percent, avoiding a runoff.

5. Did the AP take Dallas County into account?

[TheRickles]

6. She's behind by 160K with 200k uncounted.

So she'd have to win 90% of the remaining votes (180k to 20k) to overcome that margin. Even if they're all in Dallas County, it's pretty unlikely.

8. Tks.

[mobeau69]

7. Not sure but I would think so. Either way Talarico was called ftw.

10. Well, damn.

Was really hoping Ms. Crockett would be our nominee. She has shown she can handle the repukes in congress.
Oh, well. Come November, I know who I will be voting for, and it ain't gonna be no repuke!

[Joinfortmill]

11. I hope he's what he says he is.

[Escape]

13. Crockett is young and talented..

and will be a force in American politics for many decades.

When we take back the government and start prosecuting Republican felons, I'd love to have her heavily involved in the process.
