Crockett was reportedly the GOP’s preferred opponent in the 2026 Senate elections in Texas, but had not been considered as a potential contender in the race by her own party
The Republican Party allegedly promoted favorable polls about Representative Jasmine Crockett as part of a plan to goad the outspoken Democrat into running for the Senate.
Crockett was reportedly the GOP’s preferred opponent in the 2026 race in Texas, but had not been considered as a potential contender in the race by her fellow Democrats.
That prompted Senate Republicans to disseminate a poll in July suggesting that she would be the frontrunner in the Democratic primary.
“When we saw the results, we were like, ‘OK, we got to disseminate this far and wide,’” a source familiar with the plan told NOTUS.
Texas has a population of about 30m. 20m of that is in the Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin MSAs.
Right, but the vast majority of districts are gerrymandered to hell and back, leaving the state purple at best when in all actuality it’s actually very, very blue. Short of somehow convincing our state legislators to undo all the gerrymandering, the next best thing to do is convince all the rest of the repuglicunts to change their views and start voting blue.
Y’know, or just shoot all the stupid motherfuckers that have been continually running this state into the ground in the fucking face. One of the two.
