Despite Jasmine Crockett’s defeat in the Democratic primary, most Black voters in Texas remain firmly behind James Talarico for U.S. Senate — with 79% planning to vote for him in November. A new poll by Texas Southern University reveals that fewer than 10% of Black Texans are deterred from voting due to Crockett’s loss, while 80% believe her race influenced non-Black voters’ choice. Talarico, responding to criticism that the party overlooks Black voices, pledged $25 million in outreach and acknowledged the Democratic Party’s “troubling history” of neglecting Black voters — a moment met with applause. With Ken Paxton trailing at just 12% support among Black voters, Talarico’s campaign is banking on sustained turnout — even as 77% of respondents feel ignored by the party.
