In reply to the discussion: A tweet from Jasmine Crockett [View all]rampartd
(4,477 posts)4. i am glad this potentially divisive primary ended with a handshake
i hope we can find a suitable position for ms crockett
and that talarico can beat whichever of the regressives survives their run off.
i don't understand what happened in the courts over dallas county's voting hours, but we need to get those things solved long before the election begins.

If you followed this primary election, you know it had nothing at all to do with that.

He had too big a lead for what happened in Dallas County to make a difference in the election.

Absolutely. She would have been elected in a nanosecond in one of the sane states.

I hope Crockett soon gets back in Congress. She is a breath of fresh air sorely needed.

She works within the confines of our government. Despite good intentions and hard work she is limited.

They should both fight to make sure that every vote cast in Dallas County is counted.

Jasmine has already conceded. I didn't see the final tally to know whether they did or didn't.
