    Thank you Representative Crockette for putting the well being of Americans over party machinations.

    The direction of the DNC and Humanity is through progressive politics one day at a time.

    From an observer in Canada who will one day set foot again in the Republic of Texas.

    Good. Hopefully this shuts up the people calling Crockett a sore loser

  3. > “Texas is primed to turn blue and we must remain united because this is bigger than any one person,” Crockett said in a statement. “This is about the future of all 30 million Texans and getting America back on track.”

    I hope we can turn blue. I voted for Crockett now I’ll vote for Talarico, hopefully Texans get with it this time.

    And, although I hope both her and Talarico file to see what’s up with the Republican disenfranchisement shenanigans too, I think the best way to overcome the cheating is to show up in large numbers!

  4. I’m gonna miss her in the House. Hopefully she’s able to bounce back from this relatively quickly.

    Her message of unity is important. I was afraid it would be divisive, and held my opinion of her for this moment. Now I’m breathing a sigh of relief and glad to have Ms. Crockett on the team!

    It’s a shame that Texas could only have one candidate. I like both of them.

    I was scared to death she would run as an independent. Good for her for rising to the occasion. This is an exciting time for Texas.

    Are polls ever going to get anything right again? Saw Crockett with a 12 point lead 2 days ago 🤣

  9. Hopefully the crockett fans can let go of their egos and we can finally move in a positive direction as a state.

  10. I liked Jasmine and would have happily voted for her if I lived in Texas.

    However, these elections are pivotal. Strategy-wise, there are just a few too many people who would simply not vote for a black woman over a white man, especially one who espouses Christian beliefs.

    I don’t like it. I don’t believe in it. But, turning Texas blue is the primary goal at this point, and Jasmine graciously sees that. I hope Jasmine can bring her fire to other elections once we get rid of the parasites in Washington right now.

  11. She has a bunch of options.

    She could Rally with Dems to raise money they really need then go her Cruz’s seat in 2030.

    She could get a cabinet seat with the next Democrat President

    She could easily operate a PAC for the Dems

    She could go back to being an attorney

    Outside the other senate seat she’s could be just a year away from all those other things. I hope she uses the remain time to keep your name out there.

    You know what, bravo. I thought this race was gonna turn into ugly mud slinging. Seeing dems prop each other up is great.

  13. I’m a fan of Crockett. Don’t live in Texas but I called her office a few months ago to thank her for the work she was doing, that I wanted her to know people appreciated her speaking up against Trump. 

    The woman I spoke with was insanely unprofessional, to the point she more or less hung up on me. It may have been a bad day, the staff member may have been busy, but it’s one of those interactions that sticks with you because the rudeness was so unnecessary. 

    It did make me think, if this is her staff, she may not be ready for a bigger stage. So I’m not shocked at the loss. 

    I hope Crockett uses these next ten months to continue to loudly advocate for democracy. And I hope she can continue to learn and can eventually come back to working in politics.

    I liked both and they were fine candidates. Now it’s time to support Talarico and Texans can have someone who represents all of them, not just a handful of millionaires.

  15. SillyAlternative420 on

    Crockett needs to go after Cruz. I hope to see her again.

    Take less money from AIPAC next time though.

  16. spicymushrooom_ on

    I knew he’d win. You could tell just by checking the subs and seeing why people would vote for Talirico vs Crockett.

    Some people were trying to make it a racial issue which is just pure BS.

    He has my MAGA ass parents questioning things. That says something.

  17. SuddenImagination177 on

    Magas on twitter trying to pull every stunt to make her look bitter but it keeps backfiring on them

  18. I hate that they were competing. The “democratic” party really needs both.

  19. it was less close than i thought it would be. Lets hope talarico can win it. He’s a lot better than beto o’rourke was

  20. Kinda bums me out as a black person. The rhetoric around James has been irksome to say the least.

  21. AIPAC money is poison. Corporate money is poison. Grassroots donations is what dems should strive for.

  22. Howdthecatdothat on

    I loved them both – different styles, but both have the passion and fire we need. My fantasy – she joins Talarico’s office as chief of staff, then destroys Cruz in a few years and we get them both!

  23. Sonofagun57 on

    I definitely am much much more of a Talalrico guy, but I seriously respect Jasmine conceding gracefully and affirming support behind him.I hope her voters take that heart too. I know Twitter isn’t real life but it’s disconcerting seeing a lot of her voters going full apathy mode seeing her loss.

    That being said, James‘ priority 1A should be ensuring he secures her voting bloc behind him. While the gop is embattled in a runoff, now is the time he should be doing exactly that.

    Though I’m sad to see her out of the house, I cannot WAIT to see her eviscerate Ted Cruz on a debate stage if she gets the primary the next round.

    dem voters in texas you all need to try your hardest to show up to early voting and tell as many of your friends and family to do the same. they are going to try and keep you all from voting on election day witnessed by what happened in dallas yesterday as if you needed any more convincing

  26. OnSnowWhiteWings on

    Huge mistake voting for another Christian over a clean and clear progressive. But what can you do, but wait a few years for that fetterman style „I told you so“
