The conventional wisdom is that Talarico would fare better in the General Election.

But reading about the race, it seems Crockett will generate lots of attention to our causes with her rhetoric. Talerico seems like a more able legislator. An interesting race.

The Democratic voters in Texas however, are the ones who get to fill out the ballot.

While I have already voted for Talarico, I would be very happy to support Crockett if she is the nominee. Texas Democrats are blessed with two amazing persons running for this seat which is why the polling has been all over the place.



I thought our 2024 MD senate primary had some of the worst polling but TX you are the winner hands down. I really have no clue who will win on Tuesday and I am okay with that.

One or none of these polls got it right, I never seen no shit like this 🤷🏽‍♀️



Here is the latest average of the polling




These numbers are all within the margin of error and so I would not be surprised to see either candidate emerge as the nominee. Again, Texas Democrats are blessed with two amazing candidates and we will be fortunate to have either candidate be our nominee to run against hopefully Paxton.
