...but I think someone like Talarico will attract more Texas voters than a firebrand like Jasmine Crockett. I don't reject Talarico for his religiosity, but I voted for Jasmine. I really think Talarico has a better shot at beating Cornyn or Paxton in November.

BTW, Democrats outnumbered Republicans in Texas early voting for first time in more than 20 years. I believe it was around 2.2 million Dem vs 1.8 million Republicunts.
