James Talarico says he’s trying to earn the support of Black voters. Jasmine Crockett says her priority is down-ballot races—not campaigning for his Senate bid. So what does that mean for Democrats in Texas?
After my last Jasmine Crockett video, many of you asked what happened after the primary. I traveled to Texas to get answers.
In this exclusive interview, I sit down with Frederick Nickens, Chairman of the Texas Coalition of Black Democrats, to discuss whether James Talarico can unite Black voters, why lingering feelings still exist after the Democratic primary, and what Jasmine Crockett’s role may be moving forward.
We discuss:
✅ James Talarico’s outreach to Black voters
✅ Jasmine Crockett’s decision not to campaign for his Senate race
✅ The Texas Democratic Party strategy heading into 2026
✅ Whether Black Democrats are ready to support Talarico
✅ The importance of down-ballot races in Texas
✅ My exclusive interview with Frederick Nickens
