In this CNN interview, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett makes it plain: Texas is not as red as they’ve been telling you.
As early voting wraps, Crockett talks about the surge in turnout, the unexpected influence of young women in this race, and why the only polls that matter are the ones Texans show up to. While critics question whether she can win a general election, Republicans are spending millions trying to stop her before she even gets there.
She addresses the attacks, the electability chatter, and the reality that she is the only Democrat consistently polling ahead of Republican opponents. And when asked about Governor Abbott pouring over $3 million into attack ads against her, she keeps it simple: follow the money.
This race isn’t about culture wars. It’s about affordability, healthcare, rent, wages, and whether working Texans finally get a fighter in Washington who doesn’t back down.
Don’t mess with Texas.
