If Crockett has lost, then what will be her visibility?

Will she campaign for him and be a media surrogate for him?

That would be great! But then what of her future after November?

If Talarico wins the seat, I think the offer should at least be made.

Whoever he might otherwise have in mind for the job can't possibly be as big help to him and the People of Texas as Jasmine Crockett would be.

Unless she litigates her primary loss and the two of them end up hating each other's guts.

Senators only run for office every six years. It's not unusual for them to run for higher office on off years. LeftInTX 14 hrs ago #46

No spoilers, Democrats have no business being sore losers. Pisces Yesterday #17

Absolutely not. Why in the world should the vote be divided in a state where Dems haven't won a senate seat in decades? themaguffin 18 hrs ago #42

Candidate for President in 2028 or VP Pick ? thought crime Yesterday #33

I doubt either. She may run for POTUS in 2028, but will have little chance (IMHO) of winning the Dem nomination. Celerity Yesterday #36

Good analysis; you're probably right as usual. thought crime 16 hrs ago #43
