Jasmine Crockett Files to Run for U.S. Senate in Texas

Outlets on both sides report that Jasmine Crockett filed to run in the Texas Democratic primary for U.S. Senate after Colin Allred left that race. Center outlets largely present the filing as reshaping the Democratic primary and add race context. Right-leaning outlets emphasize criticism of Crockett, including past controversies, and cast her candidacy as a potential liability for Democrats.
