Harris urged voters to support Crockett in a robocall released during the final stretch before the March 3 Democratic primary. Harris said Texas had a chance to send a fighter to the Senate and called for turning the state blue. Harris’s team coordinated with Crockett’s campaign, and another call was expected on Election Day.
