Jasmine Crockett

The Democratic primary for Texas' 30th Congressional District has been decided. The winner will likely head to Congress from the safely Democratic Dallas-area seat previously held by Jasmine Crockett, who is running for U.S. Senate.

Talarico, after winning a tight race against Crockett, is seeking to give Democrats their first win in a statewide election in more than 30 years.

Both Democratic candidates for Texas' U.S. Senate seat sat down with KERA hosts to talk about their legislating styles and their belief in winning a blue seat for the state.

On the Republican side, Ken Paxton and John Cornyn were neck-and-neck and in position for a runoff, according to the poll from the University of Texas’ Texas Politics Project.

Talarico, a Democratic candidate for one of Texas' U.S. Senate seats, was set to appear on "The Late Show" on Monday. Host Stephen Colbert lambasted the decision not to air the interview, which was shared on YouTube.

The survey findings released Monday come just eight days before the start of early voting.

Former Congressman Colin Allred had dropped out of the U.S. Senate race hours before Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett entered, becoming state Rep. James Talarico's opponent. The Texas Democratic Party leader said he wants candidates to get along.

Allred also urged Democrats to vote for Talarico’s opponent, Jasmine Crockett. The former Dallas congressman was Talarico’s main rival in the Senate primary before dropping out the day Crockett entered the race.

James Talarico said Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett had told him she was “focused on her work in the Congress and was looking at running in 2030” when asked if she had planned to run in the upcoming Senate primary.

U.S. Reps. Joaquin Castro of San Antonio and Jasmine Crockett of Dallas said conditions they observed Wednesday inside the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley amount to "inhumanity." The two Democrats urged Immigration and Customs Enforcement to release five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and other children.

The Democratic U.S. Senate candidates weighed in on everything from foreign policy and the recent U.S. military actions in Venezuela to healthcare costs and whether they'd support raising taxes on billionaires.

The two hopefuls for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate have bolstered their careers and raised their profiles across YouTube, Instagram and other social media platforms.
