A word on Crockett/Talarico

[Aviation Pro]

Whoever wins gets my dollars.
Whoever wins shall get every last vote that can be gotten in the midterms
Whoever wins needs the support of every freedom loving person in the United States of America.
Whoever wins doesn't need the PUMA or I didn't get my pony bullshit.

You back whichever candidate wins either with a vote if you're a Texan or with money if you're not.

[Bobstandard]

1. The runner up needs to support the winner

If the runner up doesn’t support the winner strongly in the General, we’ll know they weren’t worthy of the top slot.

[pansypoo53219]

29. just vote d. fuck goldilocks.

[TBF]

2. Which part of Texas do you live in?

I'm in Houston. I've seen polls go back and forth, this one's wide open.

The good news I can give you, esp. if you're not a Texan, is that so far, we've had more people request blue ballots than red in this primary. That's pretty much unheard of down here.

[Aviation Pro]

5. I'm in Florida

And money knows no borders.

[TBF]

6. You would be as excited as I am then -

we're not used to everyone asking for a dem ballot! Open primary here so that's exciting no matter who "wins". Taking on Paxton/Cornyn is the harder job, and we will need all hands on deck for sure.

[lastlib]

9. I will be donating to the winner, post-primary......

I'm in Missouri, so can't vote in this one.....if I were somehow slipped a ballot, I might be tempted.............

but, no. Just $$. And moral support.

[leftieNanner]

12. Keep in mind

That the Republican party in Texas has been urging their folks to vote for Crockett, because they think she will be easier to beat in the general election.

We shall see.

[TBF]

20. And where do you live? Are you in Houston?

I'm in Ron Paul's old district and I do hear republican scuttlebutt down here believe it or not ...

although it's fun to be lectured to by folks in other states

[leftieNanner]

22. That wasn't a lecture

But you're right that I don't live in Texas. I have seen reporting to that effect. That's all.

[ananda]

13. I'm in Austin. I voted for Talarico..

and I will vote Democratic no matter who
wins the primary.

[TBF]

25. Either way we have a lot of work ahead of us ...

[ananda]

27. I keep hoping Texas is ready to turn.

I mean, how bad does it have to get?

[Jack Valentino]

30. Hasn't happened since near the turn of the century, is what I read...

[mdbl]

37. Does Texas have an open primary?

That can be a good or a bad thing depending on the motive of the voter.

[Red Mountain]

3. Glad I don't have to choose

and happy with either one.

[MustLoveBeagles]

4. Preach

[PeaceWave]

7. If only they could meld into one candidate named Crockarico...

Then, everyone would be happy.

[Cirsium]

8. You mean Crockett supporters?

When you say "whoever wins doesn't need the PUMA or I didn't get my pony bullshit" do you mean from Crockett supporters?

[paleotn]

16. All supporters no matter WHO they support.

Clear, no? Dems sometimes have a bad habit of f'ing themselves with petty whining.

[Cirsium]

17. Maybe

It never seems to apply to supporters of moderate candidates.

[TBF]

18. Believe me, I understood the op ...

it's a common refrain that comes along with a certain endorsement today. We'll see what happens.

[Cirsium]

21. Calls for unity

We often see calls for unity that are actually divisive.

[spanone]

10. K&R

[Buddyzbuddy]

11. Well said and absolutely correct.

[LilElf70]

14. Crockett gets my vote.

She takes nothing from no one, tells it as it really is, and has no problem associating Trump with EVERYTHING. She's proven herself over and over and over again.

[NoMoreRepugs]

15. But but but do either pass the 200 purity tests that some D voters apply???

[Zambero]

19. Texas Dems have two very fine candidates from which to choose

for the U.S. Senate. A tough primary choice for many, I'm sure. Come November, the choice will be MUCH easier!!!

[Seinan Sensei]

23. An embarrassment of riches for Dems

[mvd]

24. Two good candidates

I’d vote Crockett if I lived there. Tired of playing nice with the abnormal.

[Trailrider1951]

26. If I still lived in Texas, Jasmine Crockett would get my vote in the primary

But if James Talarico wins, I will 100% support him.

[Beartracks]

28. My job as a voter is to vote for the most liberal candidate on the ballot. Thus...

... if my top choice Democrat didn't win the primary, then the one who did is now my top choice.



===================

[PurgedVoter]

31. I voted for Jasmine

I will happily vote for the winner of this.

[duhneece]

32. Daughter in law enforcement in Lubbock

She said she flipped a coin because she couldn’t decide. Talarico won the coin toss. She said she’ll support the winner of the two.
Have I told y’all how scared I was when she moved to Lubbock and began her career in LE-that she would turn Republican? She is a civilian Sex Offender investigator.
She has become more vocal about politics in the past couple of years.
She took her 8 year old son with her to vote. They both had ‘I voted’ stickers on yesterday.

[Callie1979]

33. I think Talarico has the best chance in Nov. The GOP wants Crockett.

That tells me their polling makes them more scared of Talarico.
WINNING is all that matters.

[Zelda_Orchid]

34. Always

Until the fascists are defeated

[Liberal In Texas]

35. Democrats here only feel bad because one of them will not have the nominaion.

We like both of them a lot.
As far as I can tell Texas Democrats will have no problem supporting whoever wins the primary.

[Javaman]

36. Already early voted. whomever wins is my candidate. nt
