Kamala Harris Urges Voters to Support Jasmine Crockett in Texas Primary

Outlets agree that Harris recorded a robocall endorsing Jasmine Crockett in the Texas Democratic Senate primary. Crockett is competing against James Talarico for the nomination. Left-leaning outlets present the endorsement as support for a candidate who could hold Trump accountable. Center outlets mainly report the endorsement and place it in the context of the primary race. Right-leaning outlets give more attention to possible Republican advantage and Harris’s political influence, though some describe the endorsement more straightforwardly.
