The Texas Senate primary between Colin Allred, James Talarico and Jasmine Crockett is turning ugly. Why? Democrats infight instead of focusing on the bigger goal. Drop the name-calling. Beat a weak GOP incumbent. Show your best. Let voters decide. Unity wins elections. Infighting loses them.

Texas Senate primary candidate Talarico responds to allegations he called fellow Dem 'mediocre Black man'
Allred endorsed Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the Texas Senate Democratic primary.

Republicans have had Texas more or less sown up for years, at least at the level of the Senate and Governorship. Would love to see that change, but I think friction during the primary is not unusual.
Perfectly said! Get behind one candidate and let’s win this! Jim from Maine
