31. I think that there will be a strong bias towards Talarico

Wednesday

in the primary simply because so many people believe that Crockett can't win the general. The last two people in our family who haven't left Texas, my sister and nephew, both voted for Talarico because they thought Crockett couldn't win. And my nephew is absolutely allergic to religion.
