Jasmine Crockett said Zohran Mamdani’s New York City mayoral victory showed Democrats could win without softening their rhetoric, as she announced a Senate run against John Cornyn. The article also revisits criticism of Crockett’s past statements and an allegation about an Epstein-related donation.
Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett told MS NOW host Chris Hayes that Mamdani’s election win showed Democrats could win by being “tough” rather than sounding like Republicans. Crockett announced Tuesday that she would run for the Senate seat held by Republican John Cornyn; former Rep. Colin Allred then entered a House race instead.
The article describes Mamdani’s victory over Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa and summarizes policies he campaigned on. It also criticizes Crockett, reporting that she faced criticism for alleging an Epstein donation to EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin; the article says the donation was from a different Jeffrey Epstein. It recounts other past comments by Crockett about ICE, Donald Trump, Greg Abbott and Charlie Kirk.
