Abbott's "radicals" Ad was trying to trick progressives into voting for unelectable Crockett, but the Ad probably made older democrats think these negative-Ads would hurt Crockett in a General Election. Abbott may have helped get Talarico nominated.

Or who do you think the Ad helped more? And why did Governor Abbott spend $4 million on that Ad if it moved more old voters to Talarico than it did young voters to Crockett? Senate control on the line.

In all fairness even the Democrats recognize what an idiot Jasmine is. That's quite an indictment.

Only the most fervent far left Beto types voted for her.

Those who actually wanted someone that could appeal to people outside and not get competed wiped out in November, the base pulled the lever for Talarico.

She received over 1 million votes. And if she had won this primary, she'd receive millions more in November.

Don't kid yourself. Democrats love her. They just like talarico more. For now.

She's such a horrifyingly bad candidate even the dems recognized it. I wish she would've won. Talarico is a more dangerous candidate.
