Rep. Jasmine Crockett told supporters that grassroots organizing could turn Texas blue as she launched her Senate campaign. The article says Colin Allred’s exit from the Senate race clears a path for Crockett, though she faces a primary challenge from James Talarico.
Crockett said Democratic success in Texas would depend on sustained voter engagement rather than any single candidate. At her campaign event, she declared, “Texas turns blue,” and argued that critics were wrong to say the state could not be won by Democrats.
The article says Crockett entered the Senate race shortly before the filing deadline, after publicly considering a bid. Colin Allred suspended his Senate campaign and shifted toward a Dallas-area House race, while Texas state legislator James Talarico remains a primary opponent. The article also notes that Donald Trump carried Texas in the 2024 presidential election, defeating Kamala Harris by roughly 1.56 million votes, and that the last Democratic presidential nominee to win the state was Jimmy Carter in 1976.
